Deals of the Day (11-08-11)

Brad Linder — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 19:00:09 +0000

The Asus Eee PC 900 may have been released way back in the netbook stone ages of 2008 -- but the truth of the matter is that netbooks haven't gotten much more powerful in the past three years, and the Eee PC 900 can still hold its own for most day-to-day computing tasks. It's also a little smaller than an...

Eee PC trumps OLPC for use in developing nations in slightly biased test

Brad Linder — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 17:36:40 +0000

The OLPC XO Laptop was designed for use in developing nations. The computer gets excellent battery life, which makes it ideal for use in locations with limited access to electricity. And it has a unique interface designed to make the laptops simple to use for children that have had little to no exposure to computers. But if you take a...

Windows 7 on an Eee PC 900 (with a Celeron processor)

Brad Linder — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 14:02:02 +0000

We've already seen that early builds of Windows 7 run pretty smoothly on netbooks with 1.6GHz Intel Atom processors including the MSI Wind U100, Asus Eee PC 1000H, and others. But what about an older machine like the Asus Eee PC 900 which sports a 900MHz Intel Celeron CPU? It turns out Windows 7 runs reasonably well on the Eee...

Spare battery charger for Eee PC 701, 900

Brad Linder — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 21:17:46 +0000

In order to charge most netbook batteries you have to make sure they're inserted firmly in your computer and that the laptop is plugged into a wall socket. So if you have a spare battery, there's no way to charge it up while you're out and about using your netbook -- unless you buy a spare battery charger. A few...

Cheap case for 8 or 9 inch netbooks

Brad Linder — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 18:24:50 +0000

Looking for a cheap case or slipcover for your netbook? DealExtreme has a reversible black and red Neoprene case for $4.99. With free shipping. No, I have no idea how they can afford that either. But I'm not complaining. The product description says the bag is for 8 or 9 inch Asus Eee PCs, but it should work with any...

Brad Linder — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 16:10:09 +0000

File this under the category of "sure, I knew this could be done, but it's cool to see it in action." Xavier from Notebooks.com was in Italy recently and he happened across a little outdoor dance party. And the music was being supplied by a local bar owner and his trusty Asus Eee PC 900. The Eee PC 900, like...

Asus updates keyboard for Eee PC 900HA

Brad Linder — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 14:10:17 +0000

The Asus Eee PC 900HA may be the same size as the Eee PC 900, but there are a number of differences between the two netbooks. The Eee PC 900 has an Intel Celeron CPU, while the 900HA has an Intel Atom chip. The 900 has 16GB or 20GB of solid state memory, while the 900HA has a 160GB hard...

Eee PC 10400 mAh battery is big – in every sense of the word

Brad Linder — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 19:45:54 +0000

Remember that big ole 10400 mAh battery for the Eee PC 701/900 series I told you about the other day? It's cheap as all get out at just under $50. But DealExtreme, the company selling the battery, conveniently didn't have any pictures showing the battery actually plugged into a computer. Fortunately for us, at least one person decided to take...

Not happy with the 2-3 hours of battery life that you can get from the Eee PC 701 battery? DealExtreme is selling a massive 10400mAh battery that should provide enough juice for 10+ hours of use. The battery pack should work with most first and second generation Eee PC units, including the Eee PC 701 and Eee PC 900. It...

Windows Vista Home Premium on the Eee PC 900 – VIDEO

Brad Linder — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 18:03:34 +0000

Windows Vista gets a lot of flack for its heavy hardware requirements. But it turns out you can run Windows Vista Home Premium reasonably well on some underpowered hardware. The video above shows the operating system running on an Eee PC 900 with a 900MHz Celeron processor, 1GB of RAM, and 20GB of solid state memory. The computer certainly takes...
