zomg... that's like someone buy kaiser to play solitaire. FAILED!

Haha... night prowler maa... neway, going off ady. Report any issues about ur gf's Eee here ok.

I'm especially interested in it's performance. Can't stand lags.

Thanks kazasho.

OUT!

first of all
go to find where asus target this laptop at the very first place, of course we are one of asus customer also
but the main purpose is to help the poor country family at least to equip thier kid with laptop
for classroom learning. so if we need higher end laptop, this is not the one to choose
unless u wanna carry around portable HDD, DVD writer. but that will defeat the purpose or portability or mobility.

and if we insisit to buy expectation have to pull down abit la
if not wait Dell or Compacq do promotion
RM1999 celeron proc laptop
extra Rm500 from Asus EEE

Somebody mentioned my name?

Yeah, really bz lately. INSANELY BZ!    So come here to escape the real world for a while.

I think the Eee PC is good for those whose requirements are very specific and are not adventurous with their PC. Take for instance those who buy PPC phone n the reason given is that they can "Go to starbucks and enjoy free internet". Honestly speaking, surfing the net with my 3.5" - 4" VGA res screen is JUST NICE only. Those with 2.7 - 2.8" QVGA screens wan... heh... goodluck lorr...

If ur purpose is to "Go starbucks and enjoy free internet" which is not exactly free anyway coz ur expected to purchase a beverage or food, I feel that the Eee PC is a better way about it.

Therefore, if ur uses r strictly documentation and internet, it's a good device. Anything else, u'll end up as Sniper On The Roof said; in the pay-peanut-get-rubbish-but-complain-QC-no-good class.

I just came back from Cineleisure. Manage to take a look at Eee PC. It's really small. Although it's running on Linux, but it's really user friendly. Nice GUI as well.

How long will the roadshow be on?
Still on tmr?

Thinking of going tmr if possible.

Owh..Too bad then..
Can't wait for it to be officially release.

How much space left if u were to keep it as original which means with Linux?
I heard with XP,left 1GB.

Then it's better to stay with Linux rather than changing it to XP.
I heard XP itself is 3GB and + Office would left with XXXMB.

The 2GB would be enough for me to store all my documents and assignments.
Songs and the rest could be stored in my external HDD or SD.

isn't it supposed to be 200USD. do not want.   
low res screen is low.
better get a low end notebook.

Hey twinheads r offering a few 12.1" notebooks at RM2+++ with pretty good specs. Got one which is AMD Turion 64 X2 with Geforce graphics. Not bad. Anyone tried Twinhead? Someone told me it sux.

Phone shops??!! Sub-notebooks??!! Sure bohh...

Left 1GB?? LOL
XP hog a lot of space..

Guess the 4GB is nice if it remains as Linux as the Linux is specially built for Eee.

in your opinion, which one is better designed? would you take the eee pc to starbucks? i would definitely not. id take the foleo anywhere i go, event o business meetings.

not the eee pc. why was everyone being so critical about foleo? it's only $100 more than the eee and essentially a direct comeptition. not the eee has no competitiopn aside for the kids toys OLPC...
