Thanks, amblito. (You, too, TurboBrick.) I know someone who just bought an Eee PC and I'll let her know about that site.

@Hyman Decent: Their website has sucked for years, good luck trying to download some 50 meg audio driver monstrosity after 4pm eastern.

Recently, I visited Asus's Web site to check out the Eee PC. Boy, did that site frustrate me. Anyone ever try to use it for support? It looked like it would be difficult to do so.

They do sell Lambo stickers and metal logo plates you can just stick on one you already have. Pretty isn't any reason to pay that much more than other offerings.

Oh, a 9300? High-end, my ballsack.

Also, battery life on that thing's gotta blow, unless you get an inverter and keep it in your Saturn supercar.

So, what passes for a notebook "high-end graphics chip" these days?

These things will inevitably be owned by two groups of people: Lamborghini wannabees who will without exception drive beat-up old Saturns, and computing performance enthusiasts who would buy such a piece of high-end technology even if Teletubbies were emblazoned across the lid.

Real Lamborghini drivers all own Thinkpads or Toughbooks.
