    Amazon.com Product Description
    The newest generation of its popular Eee PC line, the Asus Eee PC 900 provides the power of a full-sized laptop in a compact body with a larger 8.9-inch screen. Even with the larger size of the Eee PC 900 when compared to the original Eee PC, the new model still weighs under 2 pounds--perfect for students toting to school or road warriors packing away to Wi-Fi hotspots. And because it uses flash memory instead of a hard drive (with 12 GB of storage), the Eee PC 900 is optimal for weathering rough handling and sharing space in overstuffed bags.



    The Asus Eee PC 900's 8.9-inch screen is easier on the eyes, and the integrated webcam makes video chats a snap.
    Other features include a 1.3-megapixel webcam integrated into the bezel above the LCD, a Secure Digital memory card slot, Wi-Fi connectivity (802.11b/g), multiple USB ports, and a VGA output for connecting to a monitor. It comes preinstalled with the Linux operating system, and it's also compatible with the Microsoft Windows XP operating system.

    For the students and professionals, the Eee PC comes with a powerful selection of software to maximize personal productivity--over 40 built-in applications. The Open Office suite of software enables the user to open, edit and create documents, presentations, spreadsheets and databases that are compatible with Microsoft Office. For journalists, photographers and other professionals who need to use a computer in the field to create, to communicate and to collaborate with other colleagues, the Eee PC's combination of power, extreme portability and rugged build makes it the ideal computing solution.



    No technical manual required with the specially designed, user-friendly, and intuitive graphic interface..
    It's also a great choice for young students, with a built-in Dictionary that's great for homework, and it includes two modes of intuitive graphic user interface design to accommodate both experienced and inexperienced PC users. The Eee PC also handles your digital images, movies, and music as well as Internet radio.

    Nicely light at just 35 ounces, the Eee PC 900 has an 8.9-inch wide TFT LCD with a 1024 x 600-pixel resolution (WXGA)--making it more comfortable on eyes than its predecessor. Under the hood is a 900 MHz Intel Mobile CPU with integrated Intel graphics processor, 1 GB of RAM (not expandable), and 12 GB of flash memory solid-state drive (SSD). The SSD provides quiet performance and helps save energy, while its shock-proof solid state design helps to guard against data loss or shock-related damage if the laptop is dropped.

    In addition to its wireless LAN, it also offers wired Fast Ethernet connectivity and a 56K modem. The Eee PC includes software for Web browsing (Firefox), e-mail, OpenOffice 2.0 for creating and editing word processing documents and spreadsheets, and a suite of other productivity software to help keep you on track.

    You get three USB 2.0 ports, a VGA output for connecting to external monitors, headphone and microphone jacks, and a Secure Digital (SD) memory card slot. The rechargeable battery provides up to 3.5 hours of battery life (depending on usage). It's backed by a 1 year warranty for parts and labor.

    4 out of 5 stars EEEPC   August 20, 2008

    Works as advertised. Plus's include: size, weight, windows xp, response time. Down's include no disc drive (OK unless you want to load software), keyboard is good but requires time to get use to the size. I had the unit 3 weeks, one of the keyboard keys froze, I sent it in, they sent me a new unit, no questions although their process is a little cumbersome and their customer service line very slow. If weight is your prime concern, go with this unit.

    The mini-lap top by Asus (Eee PC) is the perfect answer for someone who travels. It allows me to keep up on my emails, I can watch movies(I have eight movies downloaded on an 8gb sdhd card), I can review my daily photography results and I can surf the web. It is light weight as advertised (2 lbs.) and yet large enough that it is no problem to use.
    I was contemplating buying a 12 inch laptop, at approx. $1500 but this 9 inch laptop meets all my needs for $550. One of the best purchases that I have ever made. I am an older retired person in my late 60's and would not generally be thought of as a computer geek, but I get identified as one with my new gadget, quite an experience.



    5 out of 5 stars Nice very portable computer!   August 8, 2008
    Michael L. Willis (Foley, AL United States)
    We like this EEE much better than the Linux based one. It runs programs designed for Windows perfectly and yet maintains the ultraportablity. We have a cellular modem we plug into a USB port and we can hit the net riding down the road. It is great for travelling. No need for lugging another case, just toss this in your suitcase and you are on your way!

    This baby laptop was just what we expected. I bought it for my daughter for our 6 week european trip. It was perfect. Light in her backpack, quick to pull out and use. We both used it every day to check emails, upload pictures and write on our blog. The picture upload was very valuable because even though there is internet access available in nearly all hotels and a cafe in each town, they do not want you to insert any cards or disks into their computers. Baby's keyboard is a little tight but easy to get used to if you have small hands. Every women that saw it raved about it. The men were a little unsure of the keyboard size. Everyone loves the light weight.
    Storage capacity is limited but we carried multiple SD cards and had no problem.
