ASUS EEEPC900-BK049X INTEL DOTHAN 900MHZ,30GB HARD DRIVE,1024M OB DDR2 8.9"WVGA,INTEGRATED INTEL GMA LAPTOP NOTEBOOK BLACK
Would stay away from non-Atom netbook. good price though
whats "Atom" ?
Atom is an Intel CPU specifically design for these type of ultraportable electronics, gives good performance vs power consumption.
cheers!
Atom + SSD are the way to go. Or else it sorta defeats the purpose of getting a sub-notebook.
There is no 30gb Solid state disk EEE 900. There's a 20gb SSD one, and a new one with a standard 30gb HDD. So either the 30gb is a typo or the Flash Drive/Shock Proof Mobility bit on their website is…
Too bad, if it did have a 30 gb SSD I'd have bought one.
This is the uncommon 900HD and the 30GB hdd is correct. The most recent update to this is the 900HA (atom, 160GB hdd) for $499 at myer. If you want SSD the 900A has slow 8GB, but aftermarket 32GB is around $150 from mydidigitaldiscount.com
Indeed there has been a few updated models. I also saw on ShoppingSquare of the old "701" model but with model number 701SD (product page here). It has 8GB SSD instead of 4GB like the original 701.
For $100 more at Myer I'd definately go the newer atom/160 HD one over this.
Hmm. Didn't know that Eee PC 900 has 30GB hard disk…
