Star Review Roundup: Asus Eee PC 900
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Fri 25th Apr 2008 21:12 UTC
Hardware, Embedded Systems When Asus released its Eee PC, praise was almost universal. People loved the device's size, low price, and the fact it came with Linux appealed to many geeks. Consequently, the device sold rather well, and was a hit for Asus. However, the device had two major shortcomings: its small screen (7" 800x480), and its relatively short battery life. Asus took the critcism to heart, and came up with the Asus Eee PC 900, which has a 9" 1024x600 screen. So, what's the verdict?

Unless you count the form factor, which places it in an entirely different category than the "crowded field of notebooks" in that price range


Yeah, the "this screen is way too damned small and low resolution for the amount that I paid" category. No thanks. My money is better spent on a more powerful notebook for a roughly equivalent price.
