“For many people looking to purchase a new notebook, there are a few things that a model must have. Of these, great battery-life, a light weight design and great aesthetics tends to top most lists. Aside from maybe the aesthetics, the W90 from ASUS certainly doesn’t cater to those looking for an easy-to-carry model at all, or even one that has a “decent” battery-life.
Rather, the W90 is designed to be one of many things. First, it’s a great desktop replacement, although this isn’t the crowd ASUS is specifically targeting. Second, it’s a great workstation notebook, offering exactly the kind of power that people expect from their home workstation machine. Third, it’s a perfect HTPC. It offers up more than enough power for any possible media task, and thanks to its Blu-ray drive and HDMI output, it delivers on all fronts.
The fourth audience is actually ASUS’ primary target, gamers. The W90 is officially a “Republic of Gamers” notebook, and as we’ll see, it’s for very good reason. Honestly though, regardless of which scenario here caters to you most, the W90 is set out to more than deliver, and after having spent some time with it for this article, I still haven’t decided whether I should shut the site down and run off with it. Maybe not such a good idea!”
