Tapping Two Touchpads With Asus’ NX90Jq

By Nick Mokey January 20, 2010

Do you really need two touchpads on a laptop? No, and you don’t need a Bang & Olufsen sound system or mirror finish aluminum lid, either. The monstrous Asus NX90Jq brings all of these features together in one monstrous package, but you won’t hear us complaining. The decidedly premium new desktop replacement from Asus uses two touchpads, the intention being to make them function as individual turntables with software in the final version (this feature wasn’t active on the prototype shown at CES 2010). If it comes to market, Asus says it will cost around $2,000. Just make sure you have enough money left over for a butler to wipe down those fingerprints when you’re done with it.
