Asus U5 ‘Green’ Laptop

It’s time that we mobile warriors start showing more love towards the environment. Afterall, mother nature supplies the fresh air when we’re at the park surfing on the net on our laptop wi-fi. One way to do that is to pick up the new ‘green’ Asus U5 laptop. Stuff Mag has the scoop:

Yep, the Taiwanese company is set to blaze new ultraportable-shaped trails later this month with the U5, its first lead- and halogen-free laptop.

2 less chemicals to worry about. But this ‘green’ thing is being taken a tad bit overboard. I understand the need for hybrid cars that don’t emit less Ozone ruining emissions, but what the hell did a laptop fan ever do to the environment? Ah well, it looks like ‘green’ computing will take off in 2006.
