Has anyone used, or even seen, the Asus EeePc? It's a micro mini laptop, weighing in at around 2 pounds, that runs Linux and that retails for around $400-600.
That's a lot less $$ than the new MacBook Air, for a computer to carry around to write with. I saw a guy in Borders using one-he had it hooked up to his regular laptop. I wish now I'd asked him about it, but I didn't want to interrupt him. If the EeePc were still at its original announced price of $199, I'd rush right out and buy one. But $400 is too much for an impulse purchase, especially since I don't know how well the Asus would interface with Macs. It looks as though the Asus will fit into the same niche as the Psion, but at a much lower price. Does anyone have any opinions about the EeePc, and/or do you know of any stores in the Washington, DC, area that carry them? --Constance ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
