EEE PC from Asus

Posted by: Hans Vereecken on 29 July 2009

In our supermarket, they are currently selling an Eee PC from Asus for 150 euro. It has a Linux operating system and a firefox browser.

Does anybody now if I can see and work with the web interface from the HDX?

I think linux runs flash so should be no problem.

You can bang XP on them anyway.

OK, I bought myself this ASUS Eee PC (model 900 SD), running under Linux. It only costed 150 euro in our supermarket.

The first I did when I came home, was switching on the HDX, typing in the web page in the mini firefox browser and voila, the NAIM page appeared.

Great.
Recommendation for everyone.

I did not get on with one at all but to be fair it was the original 7 inch model. Far to fiddly.
