The maker of the most famous small computers Asus is now taking orders for their latest addition to the Asus Stable the Eee PC 1000 HE. This is a nice little machine with some great features; it is great to see how these mini laptops have actually evolved over the years.
Check out this great Eee PC hack, which allows you to control an Eee PS with an iPhone. This is a cool hack.
You might be wondering which Netbooks are the best to get these days, well let me explain what a “netbook” is in the first place. Netbooks are laptops with smaller screen size of around 8.9″ or 10.1″. Basically, you get a 1024×600 or 1200×800 resolution screen.
Should you get a netbook?

For older pe
Here’s a good Eee PC hack that will allow you to run your Windows XP faster with SSDs. This could probably apply to any netbook with SSDs.
Cheaper SSD drives like our Core V1 and Core V2 series have limitations with random writes filling up the write buffer on the drive and causing the SATA controller to pause while this is flushed.

Dell's new Mini-Laptop Inspiron 910 will come with a choice of Ubuntu Linux!Dell's new Mini-Laptop Inspiron 910 will come with a choice of Ubuntu Linux!
Dell’s new Inspiron 910, the first ever mini-notebook by Dell, will have an option to have Ubuntu Linux installed from factory.
