Eee PC for the desktop market

Posted in: Desktop, asus, eeepc, tags: , ,

Looks like Asus is going to release a new version of their Eee PC for the desktop market known as the Eee Box. Here are some of the specifications:

  • Runs on Windows XP Home
  • 1.6GHz Atom processor
  • 1GB RAM
  • 80GB hard drive
  • 2x USB ports
  • 802.11n Wifi
  • 1x PC card slot

It is also a size of a book (222 x 178 x 26.9 mm) and weighs only 1kg. But the most impressive thing about the Eee Box is the fast boot system known as the Express Gate which allows the Eee Box to be in internet ready mode only 8 seconds after you hit the power button!

The price? Only £199 which isn’t bad with for a computer like this.
