ASUS U46 notebook has super skinny screen

Someone get this notebook a Mars Bar! ASUS have revealed the U46 laptop, sporting the world’s thinnest 14-inch screen panel at just 5.5mm thick.

Sitting on a hinge-forward design, the screen can tilt over the keys at different angles to widen the viewing angle, running at a HD-ready resolution of 1366×768.

Getting off the catwalk and into the tech-specs, the U46 has a Sandy Bridge Intel Core i5 processor, backed up by a Nvidia GeForce GT540M graphics chip, 1GB of GDDR3 video memory and 4GB of RAM.

USB 3.0 connectivity will mean you’ll quickly be able to transfer files onto the 500GB HDD, while a webcam, card reader and HDMI port round off the feature list.

Out now, you can grab one from Comet for £699.
