Mondays might not be an official exhibition day of the Cebit week, but many manufacturers use it to present their products to different media, due to the quiet day in regards of visitors. Asus, whose stand was literally attacked last year and always beleaguered from umpteen hundreds of visitors, was naturally on the top of our schedule.

As one of the few exhibitionists, Asus decided to even enlarge their stand considerably in order to prevent such a commotion, as it was the order of the day, for the new products of the Eee series in 2008.
Asus also presents a whole new range of notebook products at their stand. Haris Musemic, Product Manager Mobile Computing from Asus, kindly took a good deal time for us and presented the current flood of models.

For instance the M52Vp could be seen, a new representative of the compact but high performance multimedia category, equipped with efficient Core 2 Duo CPUs and a new resourceful middle class graphic card from ATI, the Mobility Radeon HD4650.  This should correlate to the performance level of a Geforce 9650M GT and should be of interest for occasional gamers.

A further highlight at Asus' stand is without a doubt the W90Vp gaming notebook, probably having the strongest gaming configuration in a notebook, with an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9000 processor and two Mobility Radeon HD4870 graphic cards from ATI. Around 15 000 2D Marks 2006 should not be a problem for the notebook, according to ASUS. Rumor has it, believe it or not, that up to 20k points are made possible by not closer defined tuning measures. We are curious and looking forward to make an extensive test with a test sample.
