The Eee PC 701 & the new Eee PC 900
The popular Asus Eee PC 701 that was introduced in the Philippines by Asus last year was established on the concept of manufacturing cheap PCs for developing countries with emphasis on educating the children in every classroom. With this development, Asus created a new line of cheap small netbook computers by focusing on providing excellent internet experience based on 3 E's. Easy to learn, work, and play; excellent internet and excellent on the go. Although small in size, this high performance PC, is good for people on the go like students, writers, reporters, kids, women and travellers with the right size and specs of the Eee PC 701. It has a rapid starting time that can always be ready for any action. It was accepted popularly worldwide with good reviews being user friendly, with shock proof, solid state disk (SSD) that could withstand bumps, falls and shocks. It has a 7" LCD monitor and weighing only 0.92 kg. and can be taken anywhere on a small bag. Internet browsing is just a breeze with its built in Wi-fi 802.11 b/g that automatically connects at hot spots anywhere. It can be logged on to Skype or other networks and you can connect with friends anywhere and anytime.
The Eee PC 900
Now, the recently launched improved Asus Eee PC 900 in the Philippines is available on selected computer shops throughout the city at a cost of P24,500. Comparing with Fujitsu lifebook or Sony VAIO models, costing 3 times as much with the same size of the Eee PC 900. I have seen it and tested the product myself in the Cyberzone at the fourth floor of the SM Megamall. I liked it even though you can find bigger laptops with similar price and more on specs but I love it because of the size, feel, fast operation, weight and durability of the product. Created on the same format with the Eee PC 701 but with many improvements that Asus has created with new perspectives to suit the taste of the users. It has a bigger 8.9" LCD with higher resolution of 1024 by 600. It has an Intel CPU, with a memory speed of 1Gb RAM DDR 2. It has a bigger storage capacity of 20Gb for the Linux version with 40 built-in applications (with Open Office) or the 12Gb memory with the Windows XP version. It has an HD stereo speakers and a 1.3 mp webcam rather than a VGA from the old model. It has a multi touch track pad that is used in the newest Apple Mac Air by scrolling the page horizontally and vertically by swiping your fingers up or down just like in IPhone. You can also zoom pictures by pinching or stretching your fingers at the track pad.
The Eee PC 900 with its accessories
It has an accessories of batteries, adaptor and a set of headphones. The battery has four cells and it can last 3 hours of usage. It has a power of 12 V, 36 watts with input of 100-240 AC and 50/60hz universal. The external speakers are located at the bottom of the case. The Eee PC 900 is a product worthy of its practicality and function. I recommend this to those who are starting to learn the PC like students, good for their school projects, assignments, thesis, etc.., as well as users who need to use a PC anytime, anywhere for their work or leisure that can be carried in a small case. This is very good for web browsing and blogging, which I may consider to acquire it for my next netbook PC!
