Highly recommended
For those looking for a neat, economical way to browse the web, collect email and perhaps edit files on the go, the Asus Eeepc is definitely worth looking at.
As you can see from the image, it comes in various colours. What you cannot see is suprisingly small and that it comes with different specifications. Admitidley all of these specifications are reletivley low when compared to full blown laptops, but they provide sufficient horsepower to do the things we tend to do most with a computer, browse the web and check email.
With the current trend of making applications available as web services, photo editing, video editing and streaming, the need for a powerful PC is reduced meaning these devices provide useful portable tools for those who do not wish to cart around one of their chunkier brethren.
