Product Review
Specs:
Intel, 1 GB DDR2 SDRAM, 2.2 lbs, 8.9 in TFT active matrix, Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
The Good:
Bigger screen in same small package; new touch pad gesture controls; long battery life.
The Bad:
Not as much storage space as the Linux version; same old Celeron CPU as original Eee PC; keyboard just as cramped.
The Bottom Line:
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.
