Asus Eee 701 vs. Asus Eee 1000H

[em116]

im sure you keep mixing up the model names?? like at 5:35 do you mean the 1000H is better to type on....

I am using a hp 701 right now. The seven inch screen is just too small. I have the xp edition. Sometimes the screen is confgured badly so some things show up off screen. The 4gb hard drive is just too small and it kept freezing etc when i try to use windows movie maker.

[unstrung13]

that's not just a 1.6 ghz processor. that's likely a DUAL CORE processor. windows xp home cannot use dual core, so it doesn't show up, but run linux or XP PRO, and BINGO!!! you've got two processors!

the atom has been a 1.6 dual core for almost a year now, but noone had ever made a big deal about it because a lot of the netbooks were selling with windows xp home, which couldn't use it..

just thought you'd find that interesting!!!

FAIL YOU ARE SO WRONG

[Mantua64]

I agree, that is lame.

[Cdogpyjamas]

That doesn't sound right to me somehow. I just got a really good deal on a hp mini so i suppose i could take the xp pro disk from my last laptop and install that on it and it would be faster? If what you say is true.

[zeavott]

Yup... I do produce music...

The right Shift key is awkwardly placed after the up arrow key, making it pretty much useless for touch-typists. Adding insult to injury, there is wasted, blank space between the up arrow button and the question mark key, where the Shift key should have been.

[gmazin]

You can remap the keyboard so the up key becomes the shift

[a1mint]

that's true. The cursor up would not be right above the cursor down though.

It's impossible to find the perfect computer, because each manufacturer has a few brain dead doofuses on staff...

[lonelygoner]

more or less?. the 1000h is faster

[ipodinabottle]

the 1000h is faster than the 1000 in real life tests. The SSD has poor write speeds. Not to say that SSD is crap, just the 1000's SSD.

And good vid, even if you confused their names a lot!

630 mhz not 600

[mikecoscia]

701 may have a 900mhz CPU but its throttled down to 600, you can only hit 900 with third party software.

[test1023]

One word... tripod.

[darkstar1one]

Do you refer to the 1000 as the 700 in this video a lot of the time? I thought the 700 was the smaller one?

Also, did you install the 2gb of RAM yourself? I thought 1gb was standard?

[Nukhem]

Microphone on the 701 is way better for skype. I've kept my 701 just for that purpose.

[mrdol]

Very nice review dude. Thanks.

I've already ordered mine 1000h, can't wait till I get my hands on it. Looks reaaaaally impressive!

[KimBiixX]

nice vid..

im getting the 901..

is the 1000h much better..?

[zeavott]

I saw the 900 series... I like the weight advantage it has over the 1000H. The biggest reason why I got it is because I wanted the biggest keyboard and also I want to be able to change out the hard drive.

From my understanding, the 901 has a nice quick solid state drive so you can't go wrong.

[x502495]

get the 100 :) not the 100h

[vonkroff]

hehe ..nice video.

glad u use my wallpaper ;-)

[zeavott]

Thank you so much for making it! It's awesome!

[pazin071]

Nice information..Which is the HD drive (brand, type) in the 1000H, by which solid state drive is this drive to replace ?

[baza210]

The HDD is a Seagate Momentus 5400.3 80GB.

[pazin071]

Thxs Baza got it weight 98 gram shock :operating 350Gs Nonoperating 900 Gs power: between 2W and 0.4W (5V)

(Solid state shock >1000G, vibration >15G )

[zeavott]

Interesting... I just upgraded to an OCZ SSD, it weighs 73 grams

[KingDelosReyes]

Very nice video thanks. Eagerly anticipating your next vid about the upgrades.

[pkmaximum]

wow in the video you kept getting the 1000h and the 700 mixed up =/ "ya the 700 is heavier" lol

[meevuu]

Very nice. I'm thinking of getting a Asus eee but they have like three different 1000 models which on is the best?

[zeavott]

The 1000H, in my view, is the best. Reason why is because its incredibly easy to change out the hard drive and they make solid state hard drives in 2.5" forms that are all coming down in prices. It also happens to be the cheapest.

Battery life is amazing by the way.

[Jikul]

dude, I saw the 1000h booting faster...
