Amazon.com Product Description:
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 weighs just over 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 16 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, a VGA output for connecting to a monitor, and 1 GB of RAM. It comes preinstalled with the Linux operating system, and it's also compatible with the Microsoft Windows XP Home 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 16 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. 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.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Slowwwwwww Hard disk
I am taking the time to review this item in hope it will prevent someone from making a wrong decision. This netbook is EXTREMELY portable. I bought it to carry around my motorcycle trips and use Skype when in wifi range. Battery performance is medium. It should last for 2.5 hs tops. Most notably the SSD technology incorporated into this model makes using it extremely tedious. The hard disk light hardly ever turns off. Read and Write speeds are extremely low, and can only be improved by replacing ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - ASUS Eee PC900 adventures
First let me say my Eee PC (Linux configuration) did all that it claimed.
Word processor (complete office package), web camera plus support, Internet
support, Fire fox web brower and more. I wanted to have C++, gcc and octave.
I was able with little effort to get c++ and gcc but my efforts failed with
adding octave. I then replace Linux with xp. It worked OK but was very slow.
I then replaced xp with disk encrypted fedora 10. Once disk transactions are
finished ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great for school
I bought this mini laptop because the school asked me to get a low powered laptop for my 7th grader. He only needed MS Word. This was a great choice because the size and weight was easy to carry. There is no moving parts so I do not have to worry about the laptop bouncing around in his back pack (My son tends to run). The price was affordable [...]. The size did not take up the whole student desk and the power cord was very long (nice). Basically he only needed the power cord for the afternoon class ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Cute Laptops for a great Price!
This Laptop is the best! If you want a portable computer then this is the laptop to get. It is small and light weight! I can take it everywhere I go. I love it! Only thing is I had to get a friend to load XP on it since it came with Linux but not that XP is on it I can do anything! I do wish it had 1 PCMCIA slot but what can you do:)



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excited to get it!
I haven't received mine yet. It comes to me next week as I expect and that is fine for me. My delivery time is greater because of where I live.

One reviewer mentioned that if you need IE to see some websites you are out of luck. Well, not really because you can get Crossover Office from Code Weavers and it will allow you to run Office and IE on Linux w/o a Windows license. I have it and it works great on my desktop systems. I see no reason why it wouldn't work on the Eee 900 with Linux.
