Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Asus F6 Scented Notebooks

— August 25, 2008 — Tech
The Asus F6 not only looks good with its motif design, it also smells good. Not just a fashion accessory, this laptop also comes with a fingerprint scanner for enhanced security.

That's right, now as you slave away at your laptop, you can calm your senses with a subtle aroma of Fresh Blossom, Morning Dew or Aqua Ocean. Of course the more manly among you would probably go for Musky Black, because it emanates "power, daring and energy."

This will undoubtedly be popular with the matching accessories crowd, with their dinky little matching mice. Until now, they probably never even considered having a complimentary scent.

Now I'm left wondering, can you turn it off? How strong is it? I mean, can you imagine spending hundreds of dollars on a laptop, only to find that after a couple of days, when the notebook had heated up, that the smell of Fresh Blossom was actually overpoweringly nauseating?

For those not distracted by the smell or the pretty patterns the specs are as follows:
