Add a cheap (and kind of ugly) backlight to your Eee PC

05/17/2008 at 9:55 AM by Brad Linder 3 Comments

Wish your Eee PC was easier to type on in the dark? With its tiny size and light weight, it’s tempting to take your Eee PC into bed and read the “paper” before going to sleep instead of reading a book. But shut off the lights and it can be a bit hard to find […]

Asus and MSI must use the same advertising company

05/16/2008 at 11:35 AM by Brad Linder 3 Comments

There’s no question that the Asus Eee PC and the upcoming MSI Wind feature a superficial resemblance. They’re both small, white laptops. But it turns out that’s not the only thing they have in common. Both computers seem to make the same boy very very happy. The folks at Eee PC News.de noticed that MSI […]

Eee PC 901 available June 3rd, for under $650

05/16/2008 at 8:18 AM by Brad Linder 1 Comment

The Asus Eee PC 900 has only been available for a few weeks, but Asus is already planning to launch its next, next generation Eee PC on June 3rd. DigiTimes reports that’s when the company will launch the Eee PC 901, which we caught a first glimpse of just a few days ago. The Eee […]

Suspicion confirmed: The Mini-Note is hot — too hot

05/15/2008 at 8:13 PM by Brad Linder 6 Comments

A few weeks ago I remarked that the HP Mini-Note, like most laptops, gets rather warm when you place it on your lap. In fact, I think the Mini-Note gets hotter than pretty much any other computer I’ve used. Joanna Stern of Laptop Magazine agreed that the Mini-Note at least feels hotter than most laptops. […]

It’s official: OLPC XO Laptop to run Windows

05/15/2008 at 6:20 PM by Brad Linder 1 Comment

Over the past few months we’ve heard inklings that Microsoft was in talks with the OLPC project to test Windows XP on the low-cost XO laptop. Now the New York Times is reporting that the OLPC organization will rollout a limited trial of Windows XP in four or five countries next month. If things go […]

Early look at the MSI Wind

05/15/2008 at 9:36 AM by Brad Linder 1 Comment

While MSI isn’t expected to release their Wind notebook for another month or so, Spanish web site CHW got a chance to check out an early prototype. Probably the most surprising thing is that during their hour-long test the MSI Wind didn’t get all that hot. Most notebooks I’ve used get pretty warm to the […]

Asus Eee PC keyboards are as different as black & white

05/15/2008 at 9:22 AM by Brad Linder Leave a Comment

The folks at Laptop Magazines have made a rather surprising discovery: Asus seems to have two different keyboard designs for the current generation Eee PC. While I would have expected the only difference between the black and white Eee PC models to be the paint job, it turns out that the keyboards are slightly different. […]

Want to know what the MSI Wind looks like in black?

05/14/2008 at 10:36 PM by Brad Linder 1 Comment

We already knew that the MSI Wind laptop would come in at least three colors, thanks to some press shots released last week. Now blogger Mike Cane has gotten his hands on some a whole bunch of higher quality images of the black version. No real surprises here. It looks just like the white model. […]

Eee PC 901 pictures hit the web

05/14/2008 at 5:25 PM by Brad Linder 3 Comments

Just days after Asus officially launched the Eee PC 900 in the US, French site Blogeee has scored a bunch of high resolution images of the Eee PC 901, which appears to look a lot like the 900, but with some subtle changes. It’s not 100% clear at the moment, but I’m going to assume […]

Roundup of Eee PC cases/covers

05/14/2008 at 2:03 PM by Brad Linder 3 Comments

Buy an Eee PC and Asus will throw in a little slip cover. But if you’re looking for something that offers a bit more protection or style, there are at least a dozen other options out there. Not bad for a PC that’s only been on the market for about half a year. Pocketables has […]



Bluetrade extended batteries for the Eee PC

05/14/2008 at 9:32 AM by Brad Linder Leave a Comment

French site Blogeee has a detailed review of two new extended batteries for the Eee PC from Bluetrade. The site looks at a 6600 mAh battery which sells for 58.79 Euros and a 7350 mAh battery, which sells for 79.04 Euros. Both batteries provide significantly better performance than the standard batteries that come with either […]

HP uploads Mini-Note SuSE Linux restore disc images

05/14/2008 at 12:45 AM by Brad Linder 3 Comments

Update: Upon closer inspection, this is not a restore disc image. Rather, it’s a disc image that contains the software HP added to SuSE Enterprise Linux for the Mini-Note. Theoretically you could download and install SuSE on your own and then use this disc to restore your system to the state it was in when […]

MSI Wind to pack a 10 inch display and a $399 price tag

05/13/2008 at 1:50 PM by Brad Linder 3 Comments

MSI is releasing more details about its upcoming MSI Wind mini-laptop. And while I already knew that this was pretty much the ultraportable to keep an eye on this summer, I’m now officially more excited than ever. Joanna Stern at Laptop Magazine scored an interview with MSI sales director Andy Tung, and here are some […]

OpenSolaris 2008.05 on the Eee PC

05/13/2008 at 1:19 PM by Brad Linder Leave a Comment

Sun released OpenSolaris 2008.05 last week, and it didn’t take long for someone to try loading the operating system onto an Eee PC. Rolf Kersten says OpenSolaris won’t work perfectly out of the box, but you can make it work with a little tweaking. For example, you’ll need to modify your GRUB boot command if […]
