  • you think it can handle a minecraft server ???

  • @cameronan289 really? why? i'm thinking about buying one

  • @hanseykemmerer well it seems like a good deal cuz i have this laptop

  • @hanseykemmerer trade a PC for a PSP? hell yeah. just remember to format the hdd when u get it :D

  • @hanseykemmerer I would say yes :)

  • @hanseykemmerer Probably. More games on this. By that I mean you can go on the internet and go to a flash game website. You can download plenty of good games, too.

  • @hanseykemmerer I like PSP but it's more worth it to exchange for this LAPTOP.

  • mine wont charge or turn on and the charger dosen´t seem to have any damage what should i do?

  • stop lieing the battery life is rubbish its gets reallly hottt you have to scroll for ages doesn't even have msn messanger the real one you cant download nothing!!! the games on the internet moves slow who wants to carry around a DVD usb? soon the keypad buttons will stop working the touchpad button will come off soon The memory is rubbish Its basically a laptop you would carry for school :/
  • good computer if u want something portable and just want to do basic web surfing,word processing ans stream movies. look at the newer models

  • A-soos? I always thought it was pronouced Ace-us...

  • im having problem with my webcam .. its seems not to work .. any idea what should i do ???

  • Is there a word document program on the netbook? I am a student and having this would be VERY helpful, if there was a word document program on it. Or would I have to install it?

  • hope its not a stupid question but... how can u put anti virus software into it?

  • Hi, actually, I thought that yours was a good question. Once you get online with the unit ( Asus with no CD port.)you can download from Avast.com. The anti virus program is totally free. No one has to ever pay for an anti virus program if they don't want to, there are so many free ones out there. Hope this helps. Super easy set up.

  • AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­S

  • haha lol "don't fuck with me" nice.

    thanks forthe basic review. considering buying one now :)

  • If any of you are interested I might sell mine on eBay it's black and it is in great condition I might sell it for around 89. 99$

  • @unflappedplayer give you $25

  • B cuz of this guy...i got an Acer Aspire One!!

  • netbook, not notebook.

  • how long is the battery life?

  • @sahab999 It's supposed to be 3 hours but I find it to be more like 1 1/2.

  • does it run xp , or linux ???

  • @sgsg777 Linux but you can change it to xp.

  • why did it say No to him?

  • how much does the 64gb version costs now?.. anyone?

  • i love this netbook......its so tinny and fast.

  • the 900 models are much better, i have one. i work in a computer repair clinic and used this and thought it was TERRIBLE. i wouldn't recommend this model to anyone, but the 900 models aren't too shabby but VERY cheap

  • This looks so good...but it is crap the screen is so little you have to keep scrolling down its just very annoying the only thing i would find it good for is msn and skype DONT BYE THIS1 it is the crappyiest thing EVER

  • lies. all of these reviews are lies. NO battery life on this thing, its hardly portable. its gets really hot pretty quickly and generally doesn't handle web browsing very well. Youtube is choppy. i just had to get that out. i bought one years ago based on these tricky ass reviews. im sure they are better now but back then, this model, is complete shit. its got to be said.

  • how do u turn up the volume??? i just got mine :/

  • @Peytree you turn on the volume by pressing the botton that is in blue called Fn (right next to Ctrl) and at the same time pressing F12. basically, what the blue button Fn does, is: while you press it, you can use all the blue little items that are spread arround. I dont kno if i explainded right... : /

  • @popcycle01 actualy they do.

    I have a 10.1 inch lenovo s10e, with a 160gb DISK drive.

  • @iohan16 External?

  • @popcycle01 More like most netbooks have disk drives, only about 5 models have solid-state flash drives. I have 3 netbooks, Aspire One, MSI Wind, and Samsung. Aspire and Samsung have SATA HDD 160gb, MSI has IDE 80gb.

  • @popcycle01 They have discs, but they dont have a optical drive.

  • @popcycle01 The word netbook is younger than the first eeepc

  • where could I buy one?

  • um...ok but it wasn't that serious..like rele it wasn't im not bein an idiot if im takin precaution i just wanted to make sure b4 i go downloading stuff on my comp so yea...unnecessary...but n.e way...thankz.........

    You're an idiot.

  • no i mean it no jokes your FUNNY!!!!

  • ... *shakes head in shame*

    Stop talking NOW.

  • lmao why the hell would i do that? psh

  • every time i download something on my netbook when i click to open it it warns me that its an executive file and it may contain malicious viruses it says this about every single thing i download: open office, e-mule, GIMP like what isn't an executive file then! i don't want to open it and mess up the netbook so what shud i do? anyone have advice on this???

  • I hope you don't take offense when I say this.....but you are a TOTAL IDIOT. THAT'S WHAT WINDOWS ALWAYS SAYS, HAS SAID, AND WILL PROBABLY CONTINUE TO SAY. I HAVE AN HP MEDIA NOTEBOOK, FAR FROM THIS LITTLE NET BOOK, IT SAYS IT, ALSO ON MY GAMING DESKTOP, MY FAMILY DESKTOP, AND MY DELL INSPIRION 1200 FROM 2002. It's like an autism of computers.....go see a geek squad specialist, your gonna need surgery!

  • heard

  • how big is the hard drive on that?

  • Theres a 4 GB SSD drive in it, (Its WAY too small because after you have installed Win XP on it you have only got 2GB space left...) i know that, i have one of these and i hate it.

  • give it to me then xD

  • Can u recommend ANY netbooks that can handle the EBAY website well??

    or do they all suck for using ebay?

  • and the cool thing about this little guy?

    It can play world of warcraft almost perfectly! :)

  • Nope. No CD.

  • heard of an external dvd drive?

  • of course

  • Yeah, but it sucks to carry the f***ing DVD Drive with you.

  • me eee pc got a cam build in

  • ive got an eee pc immessageing of it now and these things are prone to breaking me and my sis have got one each mines chargeerdoesnt work and if i uplug the charger it turns of and on my sises half the keys dont work anymore these are terrible

  • Hey dude. Are you another Harvard Grad? Try learning how to use the English Language. It is bad enough elements at work to minimize it period but give it ago. KEEP IT ALIVE.

  • Of course ago is incorrect but how would you know unless it is pointed out?

  • ur cameras a bit slow lol

  • ITS CHAZ!!!!

  • its like $100 dollars here :)

  • and its like 179 euros here ; )

  • xPancakes4lyf: I download about 60gb a week from torrents on my EEE at work. i watch movies on it, and play some games. ITs fine. Sounds like ures is fucked.

  • what graphic chipset it haves? it runs new games?

  • Couldn't play games to have it's self.

  • you can play call of duty or half life or counter strike...

  • No you can't, if you could it would have to be a remodelled version of the game this the graphics even lower.

  • No, it cant.

    I cant remember which one, but there's a "gaming" netbook with a 9200 gs, and costs about 1000$ where I come from.

    This on is only like 300$ from my place.

  • WATCH OUT! The 9200GS is actually horrible for gaming, it's slightly better than my IGP 7150m, 4 years before this card was a twinkle in any motherboard manufacturer's eye. Its an IGP, it's NOT satisfactory for gaming!

  • I have it for mixing and it's preety good =)

  • what's the downside to this laptop?

  • Puhskettio: Doesnt have a CD/ DVD drive

  • Easily fixed, though

  • O M G !!!!!!!!!

    This is the same alien-hands that reviews the ThinkPads!!!!!! Gonna have some traumatizing nightmares tonight =(

  • it does

  • im gunna get a ee pc 904 ha..dose it have buil it speakers?? please ruply very urgent

  • it does but as usual for netbooks they aren't that great.

  • but u cant see xp full on this can u ..... i see have the screen i mean the desktop why pls answer ????

  • Not everyone is interested in upgrading their parts, however. I find generally only power users make the effort or need to upgrade frequently - average users prefer to stick with stock parts and upgrade very rarely, in which case they just buy a new computer. For portability and convenience laptops are far more practical than desktops. For the price of computers these days, you could be a little netbook AND a great desktop for about $1500 total...

  • It's a cool tool for experimenting with various Linux installations.

    Just backup the SSD contents in case you have something you like and you can restore the environment back onto the laptop at any time.

  • A friend of mine bought it for 159e (brand new!!) and since then he stopped using his desktop .For what he wants to do the eee pc is more than enought as he says.I regret not buying it as well for 159e ! :S

  • How do you recover the O.S from a Crash?

  • press F9 during boot up

    it will reset to factory image (fresh install of XP)

  • i have that small coputer.

    its okay but i hate it!

  • DIAF or lava. And please dont insult the internet by using it.

  • why do u hate it?

  • why did this guy just read what was on the box to us?

  • how much ram and where can i get one in ontario(canada)

  • There are stores around Toronto called Canada Computers, but as for the rest of Ontario, I don't know if they exist there.

  • its because exaggerated power consumption on cpus and vidcards have begun to send desktops to extinction, i actually predicted this way back -the only way atx desktops can survive is if laptop and net top cpus were made to fit atx motherboards.and vidcard power consumption dropped significantly

  • I'm not too confident in the desktop's extinction.

    The reduced power consumption on notebooks tend to come at a particular expense in price, scalability, and performance.

    You don't have much of an upgrade path, usually just the RAM and the hard drive.

    The increased efficiency with the performance tends to be costlier yet must be limited to manage heat.

    In addition, should something fail, repairs are notoriously more difficult and potentially more expensive on a notebook than on a desktop.

  • This is not negating the value of notebooks as they are supremely useful computers and, for many people, they may be a preferable option over a conventional desktop if you're not going to use a computer for much more than basic work and entertainment and desire portability.

    But for serious computing tasks or, most definitely, for high performance gaming, your best bet is going to be a desktop. Better price/performance ratio, upgrade path, and easier to repair if it breaks.

  • I got the same one for christmas.

  • I bought one about six months ago and mine runs linux. Don't get me wrong. I love it, but linux...I mean... there isn't much you can do with it that you can do with Microsoft Windows XP or Vista and even Mac Leopard. I like it a lot but I can't get any games for it, even the linux compatible ones at the eee PC website. I may think about changing the operating system manually but I'm not sure if I should go through with it. what is you guy's opinion on this?

  • I'm assuming you have the one that has Xandros on it. When I got mine, I tried out the Xandros they shipped it with for a few days then switched to the Netbook version of Ubuntu. Not many full featured OS's will beat the custom Xandros that shipped in terms of loading speed but I like the extra features you get with Ubuntu. I have heard about people using TinyXP on these but honestly, Ubuntu does everything I need. Don't even think about gaming on these things to begin with...

  • is it a netbook or a notebook ???

  • netbook

  • yuup but in this vdo i think he is calling it as a NOTEBOOK :(

  • When i bought it, it came without windows on it.

  • I have one of these the memory is small but the grafics are good. Infact im writing this comment on the same small laptop.

  • how much memory though? How big is the hard drive?

  • 2-4 gigs. Depending on the size, it's a fucking rip off if you have a lot of stuff and don't have flash drives.

  • cool sand is not heavy is light>?????

  • this thing is little POS

  • Souds pretty good!

    but no cd drive?

    or do u buy that seperately ??

  • you can get an external one.

  • kk ty

  • yea you can get an external one

    btw there is a 10 inch version of this laptop out now

  • can u format that laptop and install windows vista or xp in case that laptop crash or virus attack

  • i installed xp on mine.

  • Cheers for that buddy but i managed to do it :) Thanks anway.

  • Hello. do you have any idea how to stop the asus eee pc 701 from crashing at the start up. I got mine and it was working fine, then i tried to restore factory settings and now it always crashes at the start up, from flickering from one screen to another and back and forth. Any idea?

  • Start it up, and on the VERY FIRST logo you see, hold F8. After around 10 seconds a screen should come up that has some options on it, select "last known good configuration". (Note that you can only use your keyboard)

  • in this notebook can put cd's?

  • Yes.

  • I have the sd version with xp, 2 gig ram, 30 gb flash hd and a 8 gig memorycard and it works great.. never had any problems with it and with the original battery i can watch 2 wole movies from the hd (that also drains battery) on the original battery before it shuts down.

  • i have that mouse, its already screwing up.

  • me too but mine is fine so far i have asuseeeoc 1000ha i have bluetooth but i bought this mouse i hont know whi

  • I have it too, it's shit how and I've never once had problems with it. Try changing the battery in it...

  • ive put new batteries in, the problem is it double clicks when i dont want it to now, i know its not settings, there just something wrong with that button. maybe im too hard on it

  • they have them for 245

  • people keep whining about these new computers not having disc drives lol get with it people discs are quickly becoming a thing of the past.

    ssd will replace hdd

    flash cards and usb drives will replace cd's and dvd's

    this laptop can run for 5+ hours on battery with its sdd drive while my hdd laptop can only run for like 30 mins tops (in power saver mode) on battery power.

  • that is very true im sure in the future there will be 100+ gb ssd drives

  • no question & hard drives crash- solid state ssd drive will not crash and will be faster than traditional hd because there is no moving parts

  • hey i have a asus eee pc, but theres one problem i cant solve, when i click on the desktop icon the house, it goes onto a blue programme with lots of links at the top like play, work, learn and that stuff how do i get onto the real desktop

  • That's linux. What you see is what you get, unless you got the XP version

  • i have a few questions for anyone who owns an asus eee...

    will programs like microsoft word, excel, powerpoint, ect. work on it? and also, can i hook up my ipod/zune to it and use their software on it. basically, does it have all the same functions of a basic computer...

    also, is the wireless reciever chip built into it??

    im just really interested in buying a new computer, but i dont want to get the wrong thing...

  • If you are not an experied linux user its hard to get windows programs to work. But you can buy EEE 904 or Acer aspire one 150 whitsh comes whit windows out the box.

    Or you just install it yourself on the cheper models. And do not buy the EEE 700 series i think it has to many small iscues.

  • hey i have a eee pc and i have installe windows xp even with the orginal program u can plug ur ipod in and all the music and videos come up like as if u where to put a usb in its simple and power point and excel and all the other stuff u can get on it if you buy the upgraded version or the cheap one and put windows xp like i have and i have put 100 gb hdd in it so its a very good laptop as now!!
