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 20 GB of storage), the Eee PC 900 is optimal for weathering rough handling and sharing space in overstuffed bags.

The first category of people this computer is good for would be people with no prior computer experience, the included Xandros operating system is very easy to use but if you are used to computers (windows or mac) it will prove More reviews
- ASUS EddPC 900
- Good basic PC for internet, email, and word processing. Battery life not very good, less than 2 hours. Also when not in use the battery, even though fully charged when turned off, loses 80% of the stored power within a week. Best to remove battery when not in use. More reviews
- Nice little tool
- I purchased this little computer as a pilot project. I wanted to show computer phobes that netbooks are a viable way into computers and mobile computing. The advantages are size and weight. The deficits are smaller screen size and storage. However, these are no biggies.
My little Netbook receives a lot of attention. Everyone wants to try it from adults, More reviews
- For the complete novice or expert programmer - no one in between
- Yes, the Eeepc is a wonder, but you need to know what you're getting with this if you don't opt for Windows. You are NOT getting a computer with an open operating system and a few useful programs - you are getting a completely modified version of Linux that is locked from any customization what-so-ever.
