Asus LS201 Resists Crossbow Arrow Impact


If you can believe the video, it looks like the Asus LS201 LCD monitor is not only scratch-proof, but marker-proor, knife-proof, hammer-proof and crossbow-proof. According to Asus, this Jack Bauer of displays can resist anything thanks to a sapphire glass surface that protects its 1,400x1,050-pixel 20-inch LCD. They may as well have told us that it was made of adamantium, because the last time I checked sapphire glass resists scratching, but shatters under this kind of impact. Whatever it is, it works. Check the Crazy Ivan link for more kinds of display torture. [Foxtrot in Russian - Thanks Jason]
