Introduction

Ultra-portable notebooks are often very expensive, but not the Linux-based Asus Eee PC. This little sub-notebook costs a mere $400 USD – a price anyone can appreciate. To get there Asus had to trim all the fat, including Windows, out of the equation, but the result is a notebook that is highly portable, easy to use and even – dare we say – kind of cool? It’s only drawbacks are that it’s very small, and both the screen and they keyboard are tiny, so it’s certainly not a notebook for business users.

"Asus 8g so cool and fast!"

I got Asus eeePC 8G last week; after testing overall, I'm so impressive and satisfied with this small portable pc. Equipped with 1 GB DDR2 memory, every application run very well (about 5-10 seconds). Although the storage capacity only reaches 8 GB, I'm trying to install it with other OS (XP SP2). I'm sure this is enough for me, who need only for office, multimedia, email, etc. In addition, the device Wi-Fi also runs so good and fast.
