eee PC Marketplace

Asus has developed a remarkable series of light weight notebooks at very reasonable prices. These notebooks allow one to do almost anything that a regular laptop can do. But does the computer have any negatives? Sure, like any electronic system, there are a few minor downsides but not many.
The first thing to notice is that the computer is quite small and thus has a small screen. The initial models were only 7inches, but the latest EeePC has a screen of about 9 inches.

The second complaint by most users is that they keyboard is very cramped. Typing two keys is a common error. However, one has to be reminded that this PC was never manufactured for work processing but as a mini lightweight computer to be used for travel. At home, one can also plug into a larger monitor via the external VGA port but this is not practical when traveling. Similarly one can also add a mouse and a keyboard, but that was not meant to be a feature of the computer anyway. Plus this adds more stuff to be carried with you. If that is the case, then one should just take the regular laptop,
And finally all Asus EeePC run on Linux based operating system. All the latest models offer an option for Windows XP software and so this is only a minor flaw.
Despite the minor negatives of the Asus EeePC, this notebook functions exceptionally well. It is best suited for the average computer user who wants to browse, surf, read and send some e mails. And the majority of us only do that.
