Investigating models of the Eee PC - Best buy!

In 2007, Asus makes history by launching the original model of the Eee PC, an ultra-portable device that looked like a tiny notebook, but with a modest hardware configuration and a low price in order to offer only basic facilities and sufficient simple activities such as publishing documents and access the Internet. Although I pretty excited with the idea, I was not happy with the small screen ..

So what did? Well, it was obvious that the size of the Eee PC suggested the possibility of engaging a larger screen of 7 ".Even "the naked eye, could see perfectly well that a new 9 screen, with resolution of 1024x600 in future be marketed.Anyway, I can only wait for these new models.

Later on, there was another new feature that made me rethink the choice of the Asus Eee PC 900 Series: the launch of a new CPU made solely for the notebooks, the Atom. Fortunately, these processors were already earmarked for this new series of Eee PCs, but to my misfortune, they came to Brazil (at least not found). So, after much searching without success, I had to settle for the Asus Eee PC 900HD, equipped with a Celeron-M.

During this time I lived my qualms about what would be the best option available to me, other models of Eee PCs were becoming available, with their pros and cons. Since then, the model 9 "were gradually replaced by the options of 10" because most consumers expressed unease with the keyboard and uncomfortable (yet) small LCD screen. Since then, came the series of Eee PCs in 1000.

This model also has some interesting features. For example, was among the last to adopt the SSD as a storage drive default, come with 8 GB and 32 GB, respectively. The older models had SSDs ranging from 4 GB to 20 GB. The reason given for this procedure was the fact that SSDs with higher speeds were expensive, so the unit with less storage capacity was dedicated to the operating system (because it is faster), while the secondary storage unit got the task of saving the user data (because it is slower). Still, some (few) models had only a single SSD.

And not just the Asus, as well as other manufacturers, just to standardize its offerings netbooks with screens 10 "keyboards with dimensions close to the standard desktop and hard drives as storage units. "Hard drives as storage drives? Exactly! Although the units SSDs are replacements of obsolete hard drives, they are still too expensive to be used in netbooks. Until SSDs are cheap, cheap, but low performance, "limited" storage capacity and the tiny difference in energy consumption were important factors for devices equipped with hard drives to be preferred.

And what other striking features are the Asus Eee PC netbooks, 10, is compared, since practically all exhibit the same hardware configuration (CPU Intel Atom, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB HD, etc.)? Unfortunately, there are few, but enough to make the choice of the ideal device, a task complicated ", but at the same time exciting! Just to illustrate, the official website of Asus are shown 12 "different models of Eee PC 10"!

With battery power for up to 10 hours, through devices with different processing capabilities, storage and connectivity, to reach the beautiful models with the finest workmanship, have a little bit of everything! For example, if you are not satisfied with the low processing power of the Atom N270 and the infamous Intel GMA 950 IGP, why not bet on the platform nVidia ION?

Well I will not stay here more thoroughly analyzing the different models of Eee PCs to choose from readers, all of which can be viewed directly on the site of Asus, as mentioned above. And perhaps if there are doubts as to its use, just visit Google and search a wide variety of reviews published on these wonderful netbooks.

Should you wish to have a good indication, I suggest the Asus Eee PC 1000. It may seem counter-intuitive, knowing that there are other interesting models, but this model is equipped with SSDs, which makes it safer to store data, as is common these devices suffer shocks in transport (which shortens the life of the HD). Moreover, the sober tone and good stamina give it greater durability, while the absence of the matte finish leaves you more susceptible to scratches and impregnated with digital. Finally, the battery is more than sufficient for daily needs.

If none of the models available do not suit them, the two possibilities: either they can wait for future releases with the new Atom N450 CPU and chipsets low TigerPoint.
