They look awesome. A certain german glow over them. Like a sinister 80's Audi Quattro on nitromethanol.
 
What will you be driven those beasts with?

You know the K1000 and the Antelope silver do look nice together.  Very photogenic!

Thanks!
 
It's their Macbook Air-clone they call it Zenbook. 25% cheaper than the Macbook Air with exactly the same components. I like. Being a PC-guy and all.
It exists in three (read: two, one a very strong nailpolish-pink that's horrible). Pinkish silver ("Rose gold") and Dark Grey. Mine is the rose gold. Might seem girly at first but it grows on you. http://zenbook.asus.com/zenbook/?c=rose_pink
 
They seem to have released a premium Zenbook-model now "Prime" had no idea... Check 'em out!

Umm how is that 25% cheaper than Air?

You should be comparing it to the 128gb MacBook Air and it can be bought for a whole lot cheaper than that particular Amazon listing whereas apple products vary very little in price from one retailer to another.

Beautiful. How are they comparing to their 2 new brothers?

Did you look at the links? 
 
Zen 128Gb : $1099 
Air 128Gb: $1044 
 
I don't know where you can find things cheaper than Amazon...

I did a quick search on Google Shopping and there are tons of places that have them cheaper. Here's one example:

The same can't be said for apple products. They're about as strict on MSRP as Sennheiser is. :wink:

lol.  I don't know I think the dirty window adds to the rugged industrial look of the K1000.  :wink:  However the peeping tom trying to get a look at his K1000's through the window might get a bit frustrated.
