I would have preferred a collaboration with B&W, but B&O always had decent sounding gear. I wonder if they had any input on the design of the laptop. |

Asus makes only good things! Hope in near future the price will be smaller,with ~1500 $ I can buy a new car! |

These are not premium laptops? Where is the FHD screen? |

I wish Bose had created the speakers, would have sounded a lot better than normal laptops and wouldn't have cost the bomb! I agree with Tekkaraiden though, I prefer B&W speakers to B&O, B&O seem really over priced in comparison. |

1366x768 resolution on a $1000 laptop -- PASS. |

Wow, as I see, the only thing missing in this model is USB 3.0 |
