Compact and useful EEE

I’ve been reading various things about the Asus EEE. Some blogs and emails talked about its usefulness and some talked about problems it still had. Every gadget has a purpose, perhaps. And users, of course.

Here’s a “demo” of what to expect when you have one. As one email said, it looked like Windows XP. Hmmm. Maybe a bit. The color scheme is reminiscent of Windows XP but the icons are lovelier, I think. And the tabs weren’t on the XP. It has the basic apps needed for working, learning and playing. Probably the student’s budget laptop, especially for those who don’t have to write code or use RAM and harddrive space-consuming apps. It could also be a writer’s tool, just like a handy notebook for jotting down thoughts, as well as talking with people like fans, or editors with whom they ought to keep in touch a lot.

Some people who might want to have more with this mini laptop might want to try out adding a HSDPA modem to the Asus Eee. Meanwhile, those who want to express their personalities through colors might want to consider buying the colorful release of the Eee.
