ASUS Plans Push To Become One of Top 3 Notebook Brands
January 26th, 2008 by antJonney Shih, Chairman of ASUS, has his sights set on becoming one of the top 3 notebook brands in the world.
The plan involves increasing output, especially in the USA market. ASUS feels as though they were starting from scratch in the United States with the Eee PC, as before the release they only held 5% of the total US notebook market. The Eee PC, though, has now brought them name recognition and invaluable marketing for the ASUS brand. As a result, ASUS hopes to capitalize on the success and begin pushing more notebooks.
Of course, if ASUS ships 4-5 million Eee PC’s as intended this year, it will surely help the company achieve their goal.

ASUS is already #1 in Russia, and very popular in other East European countries and Asia.

My primary laptop is an asus. Got it a couple years ago and utterly love it. It gets pretty hot,, that seems to be a common issue with asus. Good luck to them!
