CeBit 08: MSI Laptop Purifies Air

CeBit 08: MSI Laptop Purifies Air

Techtree News Staff, Mar 07, 2008 1357 hrs IST

The 'purified' air, MSI claims, has up to 300,000 anions (de-ionized particles) per cubic centimeter.

At CeBit 08, MSI (Micro Star International) has shown off a laptop that supposedly purifies ambient air.

Probably trying to prove a point that there are other ways of "going Green" besides making more and more power-saving devices; the effort nevertheless hasn't gone unnoticed.

The "GX-600" laptop de-ionizes the air being released outside by its exhaust fan. This 'purified' air, MSI claims, has up to 300,000 anions (de-ionized particles) per cubic centimeter.

In terms of sheer comparison, one can find such rarified air containing 100,000 anions per cc only in rural mountainous areas (the Alps, for instance). Which means, we're talking here about air that is almost three times as pure; that too, emitted by a laptop.

But while this may be deemed an eco-friendly innovation, that "de-ionized air makes one feel better" hasn't been proven scientifically.

Along with its air-purifying properties, the laptop has other features as well. For instance, it sports a 'Turbo button' that can instantly over-clock its CPU when the laptop is on AC power, as also power down the processor below normal clock speed when the laptop is running on battery. MSI claims this mode gives almost 15 percent more battery life on the "GX-600".

I have a MSI 10" notebook and feel it's a doctors perfect companion. Such a light weight and power packed for Rs 23,500, really swept me off my feet. The best part is it can be over clocked with a flick of a button. It's truly a real value for money notebook
