Amazon.com Product Description
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 weighs just over 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 16 GB of storage), the Eee PC 900 is optimal for weathering rough handling and sharing space in overstuffed bags. 
The Asus Eee PC 900's 8.9-inch screen is easier on the eyes, and the integrated webcam makes video chats a snap. | Other features include a 1.3-megapixel webcam integrated into the bezel above the LCD, a Secure Digital memory card slot, Wi-Fi connectivity (802.11b/g), multiple USB ports, a VGA output for connecting to a monitor, and 1 GB of RAM. It comes preinstalled with the Linux operating system, and it's also compatible with the Microsoft Windows XP Home operating system. For the students and professionals, the Eee PC comes with a powerful selection of software to maximize personal productivity--over 40 built-in applications. The Open Office suite of software enables the user to open, edit and create documents, presentations, spreadsheets and databases that are compatible with Microsoft Office. For journalists, photographers and other professionals who need to use a computer in the field to create, to communicate and to collaborate with other colleagues, the Eee PC's combination of power, extreme portability and rugged build makes it the ideal computing solution. 
No technical manual required with the specially designed, user-friendly Linux operating system interface. |  | It's also a great choice for young students, with a built-in Dictionary that's great for homework, and it includes two modes of intuitive graphic user interface design to accommodate both experienced and inexperienced PC users. The Eee PC also handles your digital images, movies, and music as well as Internet radio. Nicely light at just 35 ounces, the Eee PC 900 has an 8.9-inch wide TFT LCD with a 1024 x 600-pixel resolution (WXGA)--making it more comfortable on eyes than its predecessor. Under the hood is a 900 MHz Intel Mobile CPU with integrated Intel graphics processor, 1 GB of RAM (not expandable), and 16 GB of flash memory solid-state drive (SSD). The SSD provides quiet performance and helps save energy, while its shock-proof solid state design helps to guard against data loss or shock-related damage if the laptop is dropped. In addition to its wireless LAN, it also offers wired Fast Ethernet connectivity and a 56K modem. The Eee PC includes software for Web browsing (Firefox), e-mail, OpenOffice 2.0 for creating and editing word processing documents and spreadsheets, and a suite of other productivity software to help keep you on track. You get three USB 2.0 ports, a VGA output for connecting to external monitors, headphone and microphone jacks, and a Secure Digital (SD) memory card slot. The rechargeable battery provides up to 3.5 hours of battery life (depending on usage). It's backed by a 1 year warranty for parts and labor. Specifications

 Little and Faster September 7, 2008
Juan Mendoza (Bogota, Colombia)
Hi,
The portable one fulfills all the expectations that I had. He is very fast and light. I retired the operating system to him that brought and I installed Debian to him. I am very contented with the purchase that I did.
eee pc 900 linux September 6, 2008
David Valk (Tinton Falls, NJ USA)
this is a great product... a "regular" computer takes me about a day to get set up and working.. the eee linux is easy to turn on and took about 10 minutes to get set up..
our company uses this for instore audits and simple tasks.
as long as you use the many great built-in applications, then you will love this computer, too.
the only difficulty is having other app's not designed to work with linux work with the eee. there is an eee user's
forum which helps with this.. but success is not assured.
if you are looking at lots of other app's, then look at the windows xp version and shut off updates as they make the computer longer to shut down.. i prefer linux as it's simpler and a bit faster..
i am very impressed with the eee.. and so far love it even more than its competitors..
It is very good! September 6, 2008
Wilfredo M. Viray (Orange County, CA)
It starts up and shuts down in seconds. It is very fast. The screen is clear. It has a built in camera. It has a lot of nice features. If you dont type very long documents because of the small keyboard, this is a very good laptop. I actually chose this over a Macbook. Portability is a big selling point.

Excellent micro-laptop September 3, 2008
Michael Dennis
I've been using the PC900 for about 1 month. Battery life is good. Excellent built in wireless networking as well as wired. Great machine for email and web sufing. Video chat is also good with the built in camera and mic delivering very good quality. VERY SMALL machine weighs just 2 pounds & can almost fit in your pocket. Fits easily into any briefcase and you hardly know it's there. It comes loaded with a great bunch of software, ie: Open Office. Not much you can't do with this suite. One word of caution- you need to be slightly familiar with Linux. As delivered, this machine will NOT run Windows apps. Windows XP can be installed, but the machine will be quite slow. If you want a tiny lightweight laptop for web and email use when you're away from home...THIS IS THE ONE !
