Asus U Series Bamboo Collection – U43Jc

Veneer of bamboo a setback for Asus laptop

Asus U Series Bamboo Collection – U43Jc

THE Asus Bamboo series of laptops is so named because of the bamboo veneer that covers the top cover and the horizontal portion below the keyboard. The veneer is supposed to give the laptop a green and organic look and feel.

While the designer may well have good intentions, the smooth veneer provides little traction for the trackpad and the associated click buttons. This makes navigation of the cursor somewhat difficult.

Otherwise, the U43Jc is a well-appointed laptop – Intel Core i5 processor (2.4GHz with turbo boost up to 2.66GHz), 4GB memory, 500GB hard disk, one USB 3.0 port (which has 10 times the transfer speed of USB 2.0) and a 14-inch 1366x768 HD LED.

How much: $1,798
