Now all we need is some cat-5 cable and a hub and we can have a LAN PARTY using games from the 1990's like Quake 2 - which will run just fine on the underpowered hardware.

Personally, I'd still go with the 901 over either of them. The 701's screen is too small, and the 1000 is beginning to look like a normal laptop.]]>Jun 3rd 2008 6:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 4th 2008 9:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 8th 2008 4:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 3rd 2008 12:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 3rd 2008 2:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 3rd 2008 1:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 3rd 2008 1:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 3rd 2008 1:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/
Like I said the other Eee 1000 post - the Eee stood out because it was a) small and b) cheap. Who's bright idea was it to keep making it larger and more expensive?

And you know there's going to be an Eee 1001 in like two months anyway. :-p]]>Jun 3rd 2008 1:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/]]>Jun 3rd 2008 1:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/
So the 1001 has a larger screen and keyboard and storage options than the 901, thats it? I want the 901 but with the features from the 1001 like the HDD. : ( ]]>Jun 3rd 2008 1:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 3rd 2008 1:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/
I think all the current Eees could use a round of price drops, though. The 8GB 701, in particular, seems overpriced. If all sub-8GB Eees dropped in price $50, and the 8GB and higher Eees (including all upcoming models) dropped in price $100, the line as a whole would be more competitive with the likes of the Wind (although the Linux-based Wind would still have the Eee 1000H beat).

I really would like to get an Eee. I like the size, and Asus does deserve some credit for basically inventing this genre of notebook (even though they now seem intent on abandoning it). I'm just not going to pay more for an infuriating keyboard (how hard is it to fix the right shift key)?]]>Jun 3rd 2008 1:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/
i have a 701 and love it, and i think that was the true eee. the 1000 muddles the image. anyone agree?]]>Jun 3rd 2008 1:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/

Does this mean the 701 now has an ATOM CPU? If so, NIIIICE :)
Presumably they have different CPU speeds from the 901 and 1000(H).

Also, I'm surprised that the 1000 has such a large bezel... maybe because the keyboard is bigger (hard to tell from these photos).]]>Jun 3rd 2008 2:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/Jun 3rd 2008 2:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/asus-eee-pc-1000-vs-atom-based-901-vs-original-701-fight/That's it, i'm going windy.

SSD Drive the next Gen hard disk are very fast in reading but unfortunately takes longer than normal disk to erase data just need time to discharge the data store conductor. but its very reliable I guess as thr is no motor on disk hence will use lesser power. very much shock proof.

I saw similar kind of or much better config provided by IBM Lenovo but at much higher cost, I guess thy deserve that cost caz of the quality thy offer.
