Product Description
Eee PC 1008P Karim Rashid Collection
Co-conceived by one of the world’s leading designers, Eee PC Seashell Karim Rashid Collection is the realization of Karim’s vision of computing—one that is more
sensual, more human, more chic.
The Eee PC Seashell Karim Rashid Collection manifests ASUS’ commitment to designing products that appeal to the five human senses, with an emphasis on vision
and touch. To achieve this, ASUS’ industrial designers have had to pioneer a plethora of material, production, and textural innovations, such as the combination of
rubber paint, in mold roller (IMR), and metallic materials to create thoroughly unique finishes.
With the ASUS Super Hybrid Engine and new Intel Atom N450 processor, the Eee PC 1008P-KR delivers up to 6 hours of all-day battery life*. The Eee PC
1008P-KR also offers great user comfort and convenience with its virtually full-sized keyboard, easily removable battery, soft-touch multi-touch touchpad and instant
key for quick access to Wi-Fi and touchpad lock.
Its compact one-inch slim chassis and 10.1-inch LED-backlit display, protected by an edge-to-edge Color-Shine screen that brightens the display and provides better
contrast and truer colors, allow you to work or travel in absolute comfort and style for hours on end. Its generous and convenient 820GB ASUS Hybrid Storage will
enable you to store, share and access your important data anytime, anywhere.
Completely contemporary and anathema to nostalgia, these Eee PC’s are more daring, more intersecting, and are designed to appeal to young, mobile trendsetters
while remaining an accessible luxury to everyone.
To make it even better, ASUS worked closely to make your Windows 7 experience better with groundbreaking utilities such as FastBoot . This Windows 7-enabled
Eee PC starts up fast so you wait less and do more.
