Asus Lamborghini Eee PC VX6 ships at long last

Normally, an Eee PC branding would mean a netbook, and we all know that netbooks aren’t good for anything else apart from opening up a couple of work documents with one browser (or two) running in the background, otherwise the poor little machine is going to start sputtering all over as it just lacks the processing muscle to handle all the additional tasks. Asus must have thought that their 12.1-inch Lamborghini Eee PC VX6 will automatically give an impression of it being faster by virtue of its association with the exotic car manufacturer, just like how rice rockets gain an extra 5mph with a sticker or two on their spoiler. Running on an Intel Atom D525 processor, this netbook will feature slightly higher end innards such as an NVIDIA Optimus graphics chipset and Bang & Olufsen audio capability, retailing for £499 a pop.
