I’m kidding, of course, but Asus really is taking the trend a bit too far. Its EEEs actually played to the current obsession with colorful laptops, but these new PC901 and 1000H editions are just going a little too off the radar. Somewhere in Taiwan, an Asus engineer thinks to himself, “yes, girls will go crazy over these hot pink and neon lime editions”.

He may or may not be wrong.

After all, the marketing team did something quite intelligent: ship off the colorful new editions to Korea, where nothing is tacky enough to turn off screaming girls.
