The Asus Eee PC S101 is unrecognisable from the “cheap and cheerful” look that defined its first Eee and the first generation of netbooks. With its sophisticated, golden-brown lid and subtle silver trim its definitely a step toward taking netbooks to sexyland.

Presumably having taken a blow to the head and woken with a small epiphany, a la Doc Brown in Back to the Future, Asus ‘invented’ the netbook back in 2007. The Seashell – or to give it its full name, the Asus Eee PC 1008HA – is its latest Eee-branded offering, adding some much-needed sexuality to the netbook world.

When Asus brought its first Eee PC out in 2007 its success and appeal stunned everyone, but the company hasn’t rested on its lauresl, bringing out a slew of upgrades seemingly every week! The Asus Eee PC 1000HE is another with a USP to blow all other ultra-portable laptops out the netbook water: a 9.5-hour battery life!

If your desk is as cluttered with files, papers and empty pizza boxes like our desks, then you’re going to need a tiny PC to take up as little of that precious desktop estate as possible. Stepping forward with a footprint the size of a baby chihuahua, the Asus Eee Box is the netbook-specialists ultra-mini PC.

Is the new Apple MacBook Pro the sexiest thing you can have in your lap? How about the most powerful? And is it the best all-round laptop around? In answer to those questions: Yes, maybe, and possibly. Because the 17-inch Pro brings top-end NVIDIA 9600M GT graphics, all in one sexy aluminium shell!

Why strain your peepers with a puny 15-inch laptop, when you can free your images from their computational prison? At least that’s the premise behind Apple’s LED Cinema display.
