Asus is well-known for the Eee PC line of their notebook because they are small, cheap, and a cool design. However, the Eee PCs quickly turned into the so-called netbooks because they are smaller than a notebook and mostly because they are very portable and are used to access Internet anywhere you can find a Wi-Fi spot.
The Asus Eee PC 900 Netbook features a 8.9-inch display which supports a maximum resolution of 1024 x 600, an Intel Mobile 900 MHz processor, and a memory of 512MB of DDR2. The Eee PC 900 comes in Galaxy Black or Pearl White, but personally I prefer black because white gets dirty and all of that.
As a graphics card (which probably doesn’t matter at all), Asus has chosen an Intel UMA card. The Eee PC 900 Netbook comes packed with a 4GB SSD, HD audio and built-in speakers, SD/MMC (SDHC) memory cards support, and (of course) built-in 802.11b/g. The wireless features is indispensable, however, I appreciate the fact that I can rely on HD audio, and memory card support, while the 4GB SSD is more than enough for me, and I think for everyone as you don’t need games and other software to shorten your storage.
You probably guessed that the Asus Eee PC 900 features Linux as the OS which runs pretty well meaning that the netbook is not slow, and you won’t get any errors.
On the netbook’s sides you will find 3 x USB ports, an earphone jack, a microphone jack, a slot for Ethernet RJ45 10/100 Mbps, and a 15pin VGA-out slot. The Asus Eee PC 900 Netbook measures 22.5 x 17 x 3.38 centimeters, and it weighs only .99 kilograms.
This netbook is perfect when it comes to Internet - it automatically detects & connects to Wi-Fi hotspots, it helps you to easily manage IMs like Yahoo, MSN, Gtalk, and Skype, but also emails, photos, videos, and other documents. This means that you can surf the web while chatting with your friends, and uploading them photos on Flickr, and videos on YouTube.
The Asus Eee PC 900 Netbook is available now in stores for a price ranging between $300 and $400 depending on your location. Please note that the price may be higher or lower depending on how you choose to pay, or discounts respectively.
