Asus Eee PC - Tech Support Forums

MervTeck · October 10th, 2007, 10:44 PM

Ive been watching the asus site lately. Eagerly awaiting the new Eee PC. And now theres a full site up except for one of the tabs "Learning".
Theres even a full site of how to fix most its problems such ass freezing or not coming out of hibernation. Yet to my dispare i haven't found anything on the net of where to get one!

Could this be a sign thats its very soon to be released? Or does someone know something i don't far as when its coming out or if it already has?

Please help this geek!

I'm thinking of getting one as my first laptop, mainly for portability of music files.

Any thoughts?

Apparently no release date yet for the other models.

Here's a link to a review:

I've been reading on these for awhile..
I'm thinking of selling the Dell Lappy, and picking up an external drive and a Eee..

It looks nice, but I say the thing is a solid $100 overpriced.

Hmm... looks like it'd be worth waiting for the EEE 8G model to come in stock. For $25 more, you double the ram (to 1GB) and double the disk (to 8GB).

PS: I like portable, but I'd probably go with this dude: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....D1167445400785

You get a core duo, almost 12" screen, dvd burner, 80GB hard drive, and two batteries. $200 more. Seems worth the money to me, as it's still super portable. However, if the EEE had a 10" screen (to fill the black area, they promised this option earlier), I'd buy one in a second. 10" is the sweet spot IMO.

Well, being a big guy those 15.4 fit well on my lap. While they may be a bit bulky, I'm just not ready to pass up a sweet $450-550 monster for a $400 hummingbird.
