Asus Eee PC 900
Comments:
Asus's original Eee PC, the 701, caused a huge stir in the laptop market, and rightly so. Before it materialised ultraportable laptops were well beyond the reach of most wallets; yet for just -230, the Eee PC offered a fully functional, ultraportable lapt
Review Verdict: More storage and a bigger screen address the main issues with the original, but the price has risen too.

Asus Eee PC 900 (white, Windows XP)
Comments:
Review Verdict: The 9-inch Asus Eee PC 900 adds a bigger screen and a larger capacity solid-state hard drive than its 7-inch precursor, but the new price has passed the point of an impulse purchase.

Cons: Not as much storage space as the Linux version; same old Celeron CPU as original Eee PC; keyboard just as cramped.

Asus Eee PC 900 Win (Windows XP)
Comments:
Asus is aware that many people are unfamiliar with Linux, and has kindly introduced the Eee PC 900 Win to offer users the comfort of Windows XP on the Eee. Physically identical to the Linux model, it's also the first machine to support a multi-touch mouse
Review Verdict: We can't really recommend the Windows version of the Eee PC 900 over its Linux counterpart, primarily because you get nearly twice as much storage space in the Linux version. If you really can't live without XP, then we recommend buying the superior Linux

Asus EeePC 701 Review - Laptops
Comments:
asus eeepc 701 review: The EeePC isn't for everyone — in fact within about two seconds from picking it up you'll know if it's for you or not. For those it does appeal to, it's a brilliant little thing that fills a much lamented gap.

ASUS Eee PC 900 (Linux)
Comments:
The second-generation Eee PC is worth the extra money because of its larger screen and beefier storage, but we wish it lasted longer on a charge.
Review Verdict: The trackpad's standout feature is ASUS' new multi-touch FingerGlide capability. Similar to the Apple MacBook Air's touchpad, we could scroll vertically through Web pages by swiping two fingers up or down; scrolling horizontally was finicky. You can zoom

ASUS EeePC 900
Comments:
For the EeePC 900, ASUS added a few enhancements to the original model, and it's still a tremendous bargain.
Review Verdict: The EeePC 900 is now $550, but you get an extra 16GB SSD drive, a wider 8.9-inch screen, and 1GB of RAM.

Pros: Amazing bargain. Added an extra 16GB SSD drive. Wider screen. Designed like any other high-end laptop. Integrated webcam. Three USB ports. Good speakers. Xandros Linux is speedy and solid. Comprehensive software bundle.
