The ASUS EeeTop PC ET20/22 Series is the perfect blend of form and function. Its frameless screen and slim profile not only bring a touch of class to every home, but save space as well. Finally, an elegantly-designed stand on the rear bezel of the EeeTop PC ET20/22 Series completes the minimalist design, while providing an added touch of mobility.

8 Comments on ASUS Announces EeeTop PC ET20/22 Series
I feel that the iMac has always been Apple's strong point. Such a great, uncomplicated design. PCs had nothing to match. Now that these are coming along, undoubtedly at a better price-point than a Mac, Apple will finally have some competition.
I would consider these perfect for living-rooms and kids computers. Looks great. Hopefully cheap.
If I won lotto I would buy iMacs for all my family's households - so we can all be in touch (on different sides of the world). With products like these - I might actually be able to afford that dream without matching 5 numbers + 2 bonus. (once a few more hit the market and the prices drop at least)
I like that it has an HDMI in, so you can connect a game console to it. I wish things like this were around when I was in college. I wonder what the panel resolution is though.
Kind of wish they offered a cheaper 22" version also with a Atom.
What I want is something easy to use and small to put in the lounge/living room. Unfortunately their place is like it's out of a bloody interior decoration magazine, so any computer will have to be good looking too. This type of thing might just fit the bill. :toast:
Then all I'd need to do would be to convince them to get broadband. :ohwell:
