ASUS Zenbook UX21 Rose Gold Launched at Milan Fashion Week

btarunr · Feb 27, 2012, 08:37 AM

ASUS chose the Milan Fashion Week as the perfect launch-pad for its Zenbook UX21 Rose Gold Ultrabook. Zenbook is ASUS' premium Ultrabook brand. The new UX21 Rose Gold variant sticks to the 11-inch, 2 cm-thick chassis, with a premium 2-tone alloy finish, with a brushed rose-gold lid. This finish also extends to the bezel around the display, and some other parts. Under the hood is an Intel Core i5-2467M processor, 4 GB DDR3 memory, and a 128 GB SSD. The ASUS ZenBook UX21E Rose Gold will be priced around 999€.

I suppose some people feel the need to turn things into status symbols or accessories to excess,…….

It's usual for girls to wear that make up in here.

they paint it or powder coat it?
but i guess they need to show more metal effect than the color so it looks pretty premium stuff
