Asus takes an eco-friendly attitude.
They are trying to differentiate themself from the others by doing silly things, like a leather notebook, or very sensible things, like the new Ecobook.

Less plastics for its laptops, the EcoBook will be covered with biodegradable and recyclable bamboo. The integrated mouse is innovative with a green or red LED showing energy consumption. Bamboo is surely not flammable (if your battery explodes).

With a release scheduled to the beginning of next year, Asus is obviously in no position to give away specifications or pricing. In the meantime, I am sure many laptop and notebook producers will follow this green initiative that Asus is already leading.
