Gitex 2006 - Asus – Gaming and mobility laptops
Over at ASUS we managed to get a first-look at its gaming laptops. The G2p is based around an ATI Mobility Radeon X1700 512MiB graphics card hooked up to a widescreen 17.1in display.Sitting alongside was the NVIDIA variant, the G1. It's got a GeForce Go 7700 GPU powering the smaller 15.4in widescreen display. Both laptops are colour-coordinated according to the graphics within and are powered by Intel Core™2 Duo processors.
For extreme mobility, the Asus R2H features a 7in touch-sensitive WXGA LCD display surrounded by laser-cut flat buttons. Up the top is a 1.3MP web camera in the center, with a biometric fingerprint scanner on the left, for added security.
As if that wasn’t enough, the R2H is also packing a built-in GPS receiver on the underside.
