Asus Lamborghini VX3

Designed for car enthusiasts and people with deep pockets, this one from Asus

is another piece of art but this time in the form of a laptop. For starters, the

notebook is extremely sleek and looks blazingly hot. It comes in a racing style

casing in true Lamborghini yellow and black; hinges made out of Titanium alloy,

genuine leather trim for resting your palms and to top it all, the charging bull

Lamborghini logo sitting on top. For those who don't know much about it,

Lamborghini is an Italian manufacturer of high performance sports car and the

main competitor to Ferrari. As with their cars, even this machine runs on a

powerful Core 2 Duo engine coupled with 4GB RAM and a graphics card from NVIDIA

which boots with the noise of a revving V12 engine. The notebook is extremely

comfortable to use with sufficiently spaced keys and a friction less touch pad,

big enough for a 12” laptop. The notebook scored 1668 in 3D Mark 06 and 4989 in

the PC Mark 05, which is better than most laptops we have tested before. The

leather finish, 4 cell battery managed to give a backup of only 56 minutes but

was compensated by the 9 cell battery which comes in the box and stretches the

notebook to 3 hours 25 minutes. Other accessories include a black and yellow

mouse and leather carry bag.

Bottom line: A notebook with powerful configuration and beautiful

design but extremely expensive.
