ASUS Unveils Desktop Eee PC
ASUS' Eee PC met with surprising success when it was launched last year, offering users a small, simple and cheap notebook to perform basic tasks such as browsing the internet and creating office documents. The company is now planning to try and build on that success by launching a desktop variant of the Eee PC, currently being called the Digital Home System EP20. Unfortunately there are very few confirmed details - all that's known is that it will be smaller than a typical desktop PC and come equipped with the same Linux operating system as the Eee PC (based on Xandros Linux). The system is also expected to feature one of Intel's new Atom processors, which could allow for both single and dual core versions. ASUS commented that prices should start around $199, although DailyTech speculates that the real figure may be closer to $299.

does it equal to "sucks"?
I think ASUS is onto something with these. I can think of plenty of people who want a simple and cheap internet PC, and get stuck with a piece of crap from a major manufacturer that has Windows and a smorgasbord of bloat-ware that makes it crawl. These Eee PCs are very simple and basic, which for some people is all they need.
im not condoning idiotic behavior but i guess ...
Then I could stay on chat even if I must reinstall system or do any kind stuff like that, maybe if it plays DivX then I buy one to silently watch films, and series on it! But I think it doesn't strong enough to play DivX, Xvid or any kind of compressed video on it!
Absolutely hilarious :laugh:
