Tiny eeePC now available in 8GB version
I’m pretty sure you heard about eeePC from Asus - this super small notebook has been an instant hit. Even though the 4GB version of Asus’ elfin Eee PC isn’t exactly easy to get hold of, some system sellers have started taking advance orders for the as-yet-unreleased 8GB model. Set be available in both white and black versions, the 8GB solid-state disk Eee PC comes with 1GB of DDR 2 memory - double that installed in the 4GB model.
Like that machine, the 8GB incarnation has 802.11b/g Wi-Fi; three USB ports; a 10/100Mb/s Ethernet port; a 7in, 800 x 480 display; and a 900MHz Intel Celeron M ULV processor underclocked to 630MHz. The sub-sub-notebook comes pre-installed with Linux and a basic user interface, though it’s easy to tweak to gain a full Linux desktop, to install Windows XP or even Mac OS X Leopard. The word mobility gets redefined and with 1 gig of memory and more storage capacity, this really becomes an interesting offer.

All I want to know is :
Who is the broad in the pic , and is she better than HALO 3 ?
Looks intrestin although price in pounds would be nice to hear looks tiptop tho.
the broad in the picture made me get up from my pc chair and shave and bath (almost).
A hamster on a wheel would have more processing power than that hunk of scrap. I would pay for the broad in the pic though.
I swear comments like #1 cracks me up everytime. “IS SHE BETTER THAN HALO 3?” LAWL.
But seriously though this eeePC looks good.
Any idea which Linux distro ?
Price would be appreciated as well
who cares about eeePC?give the name of this chick!!!!i love uuuuu!!!!
just come here 2 czech republic.. she’d be an ordinary girl, believe me. And yes, they’r all better than halo 3, well, not all, but some
this is what i call a portable computer, not that monstrous things people like to carry to school…
Price, gee how much does it cost,if only we had a way to easily gather electronic data with information like that.
It looks like it runs 300-350 US
WOW the 4gig version is 300 to 400 bucks and you can get an underpowered laptop on sale for 500 to 600 and it will do alot of things. This computer is just for e-mail and web porn, I guess thats what most users use computers for anyways right….
could do with more power under the hood considering that the ultra compact pcs have the specs of a basic home pc and their half the size
Been waiting for the 8Gb one to hit, this is the perfect ultra-light machine for techheads everywhere, roll on delivery day!
I says the ho in da pic be H O Douba T HOTT! F Da pos pc i do mac boyeeee… kna me b sayinz?
no, i have no idea what are saying
the czech dude is lying about the girls from his country. the ugly ones are hotter than pic girl is. too bad they have higher standards than i can meet.

According to Stuff, the 16 gig version is £200…shome mishtake shurely. Elsewhere it is repoterted that the 4 gig version goes on sale on the 13th November for between £200-£250.
Dam Id hit that, wait what is a Tiny eeepc…im so confused
Nice, but expensive!
I waiting for the alternatives…
Really little small PoC. Here’s its review:

That’d be perfect to use just to chat, browse the internet, listen to music and watch movies with.
The screen could be better though since you are sacrificing size.
well, the broad made me read the news…. hot as hell =D
where are your guys from,,,,living in yur moms basement all the time
this is an ugly,very ugly female,
times you get outside
agree that czech chicks are 10x more beautiful,,
and that pc is archaic,,better stuff to spend money on
get outside and see the real world

By asking if she is better than Halo you answer the biggest question of them all.
Is gaming good for you? Or in this case is Halo any good for you?
When I see that babe in the pic all I want to know who she is.
Where she lives?
Does my head lying on her lap have shade or not?
When reading some of these comments, especially #8 and #16, I end up with a few other questions…
How much does it cost me to get to Czech republic.
How much does the average restaurant cost for some fine dining?
How much a bottle of wine cost?
How much does it cost to rent a room?
Do Czech girl/women love Dutchies?
What area in the Czech republic is the best place to pick up those babes?
Would you be able to use that tiny piece of hardware when such a babe is lying next to you?
Is live porn better than watching it?
For those of you that need to ask that last question…Eeeeuhhhh…You are in serious trouble if you have to ask it.
Good… In any case if you need to ask the question if she is better than Halo you’ve got some serious human interaction problems and you should stop playing Halo right away.
Right…Time to search some travel agencies and found out how much a ticket cost to the Czech republic.
One final question…Does anyone have a postersize pic of that babe?
And this one is one me but very off topic…:P

I want to be that kitty…hehehehe
It’s easy to clock it back up to 900mhz and use nlite to install a sub 600mb fully patched XP sp2. My friend is running this config on his 4g EEE and it’s super fast. I was impressed by what he could run on it. Don’t knock it until you try it. It really is quite an amazing little machine.
HI there,
My company is going to sell this PC for £169.99 - 4GB version, with linux.
With Windows XP on a board it will jump to £200.
Price of 8GB version is not decided yet.
I worked on this PC and i have to say that its quite handy.very light, for pupils at schools its just perfect.
Small screen doh.
is this a free advertisement site now
or a trap for halo players (get a life)
a pc running on two aa btty,that run xaros linus because everything else
is too demanding
If the screen was a bit bigger all out to edges id defenetly get one without a blink
lol
Mmm I’d like to stick my mini floppy disk inside that broad in the pic ;-D
yeah this is a nice little machine, less than a kilo small to fit in regular bag, not need to worry that hard drive is going to corrupt due to the handeling, you can use it almost 4 hours, has 3 usb port, so if you realy want to use big storage you can plug some usb-hdd, so for me this machine is a very good offer
Modded xandros is the distro used, and i have 2gb ram upgrade (you need to recompile the kernel to get the 2 gig to work :P) and an 8gb sdhc card in it for extra storage. Its the mote swesome laptop yuou can get, a TRUE portable computer, only just larger than a DVD case.
lol @ 25
Why would you want a 8GB SolidState HDD when Toshiba’s Portege R500 already has a 64GB one out, and is in the process of releasing a 128GB SSHDD next year.. Granted they are pricey machine, but have a DVD Writer in them.
Its one of those trick images… somewhere hidden in this picture is a small laptop!
LOL photoshoped…
too bad it doesn’t come with that blondie
Nothing like taking a laptop to the beach. Mmmmmm, squinty.
Apart from the chick and the tiny laptop.
Did anyone notice the camera…….?
like WTF !?!?! haha
7 inches is way too small for a screen and storage isnt big enough lol, but for the price what do you expect.
If we spam enough HALO 3 in rlslog this will be the next big thing they will find when ppl google halo.
Btw just to clarify and answer all the question.
YES she is better than halo 3 BUT , yes unfortunately theres a but. Bang for buck, Halo 3 wins hands down. That chick however would cost you all your live savings =\
4GB HD… wow, welcome to the 21st century then
my first iPod had more! After the OS installed you get 3GB remaining or what? Just not enough for anything… not for some pics nor for some small movies. Just can’t see the purpose of that thing… crappy screen and still thicker than my MacBook… and does it come with sandprotection to use it on the beach… like the add suggests… don’t think so.
Buttomline: just another badly implemented marketingstrategy-luckypunch to push into some possible niche-market!
Let’s see, cost $399 at best buy, cost of 1 T hard drive cost $399 or a little more. Not bad really but the girl will cost you an arm and leg but I will have smile on my face after she gets’ done eating me.
the name eeePC makes me wanna pee for some reason..
@39 that girl in the pic wont cost you much at all. last time i was in Macau, i did a blonde like her for $100USD..:)
@ all the horny nerds that can’t keep their saliva in when seeing a blonde chick in a bikini:
Poor devils!
Get your fat ass off your chairs, get out, get to know the real world, get a life!
Then you’d someday maybe get to know a woman you don’t have to pay for
@44 Tucker: “last time i was in Macau, i did a blonde like her for $100USD..:)”
Your only way of getting sex with a reasonable attractive woman is to go to a foreign country and pay for a hooker?
JUST PATHETIC… IGNORANT AND PATHETIC!!!
Czechs are ok, Polish chicks better, Romanian birds the best!:)
ya @ all da nerdz ya needz to gets you som real gurls ya knaw wha i b sayinz?
you guys needa come to tampa if you gusy think shes a babe lol
How much for the girl?
Dell recently ran a promotion for a Vostro: Athlon X2, 1GB DDR2 and a 120GB hard disk. $399.
What is the point of this again, other than being a fashion accessory?
M.I.L.F.
re : Thom (post 52)
The point of this device is that is less than 1kg and can fit in any bag, be taken anywhere (on the train, overseas, cafe) to do basic things. These things include email, mp3s, movies and doing work on the move.
Yes there are alternatives out there slighly more expensive an d more powerful, but why would I want to carry around a 3kg 15inch notebook if I can do the same things with the eeepc? You see where I am getting at? Not all users in this world reside on rlslog and have the same needs and uses as we do.
