AiO, Qube with Google TV, ProArt Series Monitor and the VivoTab™ Smart Tablet--

ASUS, a market leader in personal computer products, is
displaying several of its latest offerings at the 2013 International CES event in Las Vegas today.
Innovation is at the heart of ASUS design and this is especially true of its latest computing
products. A few highlights of the show include the following products:

ASUS TAICHI™ - dual screens for an Ultrabook and a Multi-Touch Tablet in one
The ASUS TAICHI™ is a slim and stylish ultraportable with an astonishing key feature - both
11.6" and 13.3" models have a brilliant double-sided LED-backlit IPS/FHD display. With a touch

band 802.11n Wi-Fi.

With the lid open, the TAICHI™ is just like any Ultrabook™ computer, and comes complete with
a full-size QWERTY backlit keyboard and track pad. With the lid closed, however, the TAICHI™
instantly becomes a multi-touch tablet computer with stylus support, bringing a degree of
flexibility that has never before been experienced on an Ultrabook™. Better still, while they
provide access to the same hardware, the two screens are completely independent of each
other and can also be used simultaneously, which means the TAICHI™ can be shared with two
users for a host of innovative new applications.
