Asus Eee PC 900 Review and Dissection

Reported by on Friday, April 18 2008 3:50 pm

we've tore apart its predecessor, now we're giving you a piece of our mind on Asus' latest rendition of their world wide best selling UMPC, the Eee PC 900. Will new features like a full fledged 9 inch screen, a 1.3 MP web cam and massively increased SSD storage be enough to tempt you? Read on to find out!

Did I mention that the Asus changed the SSD controller onboard the Eee? Previously, we've seen Silicon Motion on the 701 and 702, and now Asus uses dual Phison controllers for the Eee, one for the onboard 4GB and another for the 8GB expresscard sitting in the mini-PCIE slot.

The Eee 900 is now clocked back to the A110's original 900Mhz! Yay!

and the RAMs runs at 100Mhz now instead of the 70 on the 701.

The additional 270Mhz makes a hugeee difference to SuperPi; thus, expect your applications to load faster on the Eee900!
