“On Jun 22, 2009 @ 12:45 am, Robert Said:

Asus was a great company till they decided to join there self at the hip to a 9 year old operating system. I mean I agree after 9 years xp has finally become a decent os but seriously it is 9 years old. I think the purpose of the company is to serve as a warning to all other companies what not to do. Its sad that a company what comes out with innovative stuff like this has there pants down and is the jail bait of windows. It really doesn’t make sense ASUS get it together.”

funny cause my asus laptop shipped with vista home prem

Awesome. It’s like the Apple IIc / IIe never went away.

But seriously: Asus has some great ideas and designs. Hell, they basically invented the netbook…

So put Linux on it or make a Hackintosh out of the little bugger. Hasn’t stopped other Netbook fans, don’t see why this would.

Can’t wait to see this in person… I love all-in-one concepts, this wouldn’t satisfy a road-warrior type, but for a student who’d like a (hopefully affordable) starter PC, or for a hobbyist wanting a small form factor computer for something, this is great!

They should put the screen on the middle of the keyboard, somewhat like the Nokia cellphone (forgot which model).

Judging by the picture of touchscreen display, they were sitting on this technology for 7 years.

Nice. I think I might have to get one if they arn’t too much?

Could you use that as an actual keyboard on a PC? It would be cooler than using my PC and laptop at the same time.

Nice one for sharing this.

Wireless presentations, quick connects to HDTV’s, extreme portability, frankly this thing is great and does have a niche. Except those keys… but whatever.

To all the people saying “put Linux on it and I’ll buy it”…. what kind of Linux users are you? Go to ubuntu.com, get a live CD or make a live usb, insert, reboot, there’s your damn Linux…. where did the question of whether or not you could put linux on it ever come up? You can put Linux on just about anything, and many embedded systems are based off some form of Linux… computers you never realized had any form of an operating system. So to all those who hate Microsoft, just put Linux on it, and instead of complaining about it here, email Asus, and tell them you would be more interested in an OS’less system, people complaining here wont change anything, but if people pass on these concerns to the company, hey, maybe magic will happen.

To those who are complaining that it’s just a laptop w/o a screen, yeah… maybe, and instead of your MacBook that costs well over $1000 this will likely be under $500.

This product will be great for use as a kiosk computer, and I have a feeling that malls and convention centers will like the idea that if there is a problem with a specific machine, they can walk out, pop out power and VGA, set the other one in, and within 5 minutes walk away to take care of the problem machine, while intended users are able to continue using the kiosk, instead of watching a service tech work.

As for whoever said make it foldable and I’ll buy it…. fold up your laptop mobo… and then let me know how it goes.

I paid $45 for a wireless keyboard with trackpad integrated. No wires at all, AA batteries last forever. Stick the computer behind the TV not behind the keyboard.

You know what’s amusing? A windows product review getting spammed with Mac-fanboys.

It’s kind of hard to tell who’s side I’m on too. I use or have attempted to use all three OSes.

You know what’s even more amusing? Windows fans know they don’t have to fight back.

I think this sais enough on it’s own.

I kinda dig this little ‘puter. ASUS rocks. Can’t wait to get an EEE Phone. All your base are belong to Johnny Shih, and I, for one, welcome our new ASUS overlords.

That is simply genius. And I thought Apple would be the company to bring something so out of the box into a mainstream fold. Well done, Asus!!! First my EEE 900A, now an EEE keyboard. They’re gonna have my business for a long time; I have the feeling.

I hate the keyboard its self. I like nice mechanical feedback (like Unicomp’s heavy, retro beasts, or even a Logitech DiNovo), and the one in the picture has plastic chicklets on rubber bubbles written all over it.

I hope the production version has a REAL keyboard. Something that won’t make you wonder why you payed so much for a keyboard shaped PC that types 12 ‘m’ characters every time you press any key on that side of the keyboard, and needs most of the other keys to be mashed with a hammer to sense a keypress. In other words, a keyboard shaped PC that you need to plug a keyboard into in order to use would really suck.
