Exceptional elegance in optical storage
The SDRW-0804P-D employs innovative technologies to provide leading-edge data storage capabilities. Weighing at a nimble 350g, it stands out in the crowd of today's generic external DVD burners with a tailored modern design of simple cuts and colors, ideal for users at the comfort of their homes as well as business travelers on the go. With data storage and duplication being the primary functions, the design takes its cue from a plastic injection mould tool. The mold-like design and details include engraved text and bar code. The aluminum case reinforces the image of a mould and keeps the burner lightweight, durable and suitable for both notebook and desktop users. The case features two contrasting treatments: matte finish casing and diamond-cut hollow where users can place the original or blank DVD while recording to avoid mix-ups and scratched discs. |

ASUS VENTO 3600 Desktop PC
Sleek Gaming Chassis
The VENTO 3600 is a stylish gaming chassis for high-performance 3-D applications. It sports a stunning UV-paint coating (in green, red, blue or black), which gives off a shiny, waxed look and prevents scratches that ruin the style of the PC. With its innovative, pivoting vertical front panel, users no longer have to worry about the media door slamming into their desk while having full access to the device it houses.

The VENTO's screw-less design also permits users to access the interior without the hassle of screws and screwdrivers. Superior air-cooling is achieved with optimized placement of the front and rear fans and side ventilation holes with air ducts that draw in cool air to lower the CPU's temperature.
