ASUS product’s top quality stems from product development.  It’s like learning Chinese Kung-Fu; one must begin with cultivating the “Chi” and inner strength.  Besides innovating cutting-edge features, ASUS engineers also pay special attention to EMI (electromagnetic interference), thermal, acoustics and details that usually go unnoticed to achieve complete customer satisfaction.  ASUS notebooks are the first TCO’99- certified notebooks worldwide.
