Default ASUS Eee Laptop

I think I want one of these things. Tired of lugging around the Acer 4400. THe Acer is good, don't get me wrong, but to tell you the truth, I hardly need that ATI x700 or ML-30 CPU while on the road. I think I played Dangerous Waters on it once since I've had it.

This tiny Asus Eee only costs less than $500, weighs in at only 2 pounds, has 1 GB of RAM, and has a SSD HD - no mechanical parts means long battery life and no shock crashes! SSD's are also pretty fast last time I checked, easily outpacing a WD Raptor in speed. It is only 8 GB storage, but for some basic apps, and a game or two, that or more than plenty. COmes with Linux installed, but I think I'd change it back over to XP Pro or something.

Figured I'd share at least in case someone wants a cheap ultra portable laptop:
