March 10th, 2008Asus Lunches bamboo Laptops

These days everybody is going green. It’s not just for quiet loving hippies any longer. That’s why Asus has their eye on a greener line of products. The design is to make computers and notebooks out of environmentally gracious materials like bamboo. It makes sense, and not just from a Panda luring standpoint. Bamboo is not only environmentally gracious, but also very tough.
Asus products that will be made with bamboo include notebooks, LCDs and Mini PCs. They claim that they’ve figured out a particular manufacturing process to make it even more durable. While the idea will not alone save Mother Earth, it will help a tad, while giving everything a nice retro look. My one concern is that when they crop all the bamboo, the Pandas will be pending for our laptops.
