Most computer makers looking to make their lineup seem greener would be happy to slap a bamboo sticker on the outside and call it a day, but not ASUS. Their new Bamboo Series Notebook ($TBA) features artisan-grade Moso bamboo paneling, and energy-saving tech to back up its eco-friendly looks. Its Super Hybrid Engine technology can extend battery life between 35% and 70%, and yet enable users to boost their systems' performance by up to 23%. Other features include a 12.1 or 11.1-inch screen, Intel Core Duo processors, Wi-Fi, a built-in multi-card reader, up to 4GB of RAM, and more.
Cool info:
With the accrued power savings, Super Hybrid Engine reduces yearly CO2 emission by 12.3kg per notebook. Given that ASUS ships approximately 6 million notebooks per year, this works out to a massive 73.8 million kilograms of CO2 emission reduced per year, which equates to saving 36 million trees annually.
