Review of Asus Linux-Based Eee PC 701

Posted by kdawson on from the two-pounds-of-power dept.

Bongo Bob writes "CNET.co.uk has up a review of the Asus Eee PC 701 that runs Linux. According to the reviewer. 'It's hard to fault the Eee PC, mainly because of its price. It can be difficult to use because of the cramped keyboard, but it's better than similar-sized laptops like the Toshiba Libretto. If you're in the market for a second PC, or looking for something you can take with you almost anywhere, the Eee PC is definitely worth buying.'"

    Seeing as everything from a battleship to your grandparent's electric blanket will run Linux, I think we need a new meme...
