Default ASUS Eee PC Xandros Special- Reviews

INTRODUCTION



By predatorvj at 2008-05-11
Well Friends I had seen many reviews on Eee PC ,so became very desperate to have one.Finally got this little baby in Perl White (Eee PC) for myself.

I opened once in local Bus while my way to home and guess what every one was starring at me!!Beautiful girl who was sitting next to me asked about it and i very happily explained all features !! I think she was impressed!!
When I came back home,I accidently open it in front of my cousin(12yrs old).when he saw it he started dancing around me like a maniac.
I called up my friend ,when he saw the first word from his mouth"FU*K SEXY!!"

even after having this beautiful devil in my hands there were many questions in my mind!!
  • Will such small thing which i got is it really worth ?
  • will it be useful to every person in house?
  • what about performance ?

after powering ON ,the Eee pc booted so FAST!!!
I mean it was faster than my dextop Pc loaded with XP !I mean it was faster than P4 Dual core 3.06ghz ,2 gb 800mhz PATRIOT SLi RAMS 4-4-4-12!
i think it was something on 10 sec that Eee PC booted and was ready to use!
IMPRESSED
When i saw the Xandros initially,i taught its not good
But later on when i started to explore the i founded that its more interesting !!

let me explain you all via some PICs...................

You seem to have posted this review on all the forums on the internet!!!
By the way, tell me honestly, is it easy to read and write from such a small screen. And doesn't the resolution cause problem while surfing the net?

Not that big a problem.It definitely is small, but the resolution kinda grows on you. Also, when I am surfing I generally increase the resolution to 800X600 so it is much better

Thanks buddy. I have been waiting for the eeePC 900 to be released in India. But if it doesn't within a month or so( as soon as I can sell my Desktop), I will buy this.
By the way, my main requirements will be- making assignments on OO writer, surfing and reading eBooks, articles. Hope it suits me. The main reason I shall be buying this is because of the portability it offers. Plus it will be fun to see the look on people's face when I take it out of my Back pack( where it is along with other books) while they are carrying around a separate 8 kg laptop+bag. Obviously they will be using it for the same things as me, just spending twice as much money and carrying 7-8 times the weight :-)
