Asus Eee PC 901 is the model of this little of this bit of tech.
Cute package, piano black finish, mine has no standard hard drive, but uses a SSHD instead,
so this little guy is fairly rugged. Came with Linux, but I replaced that with XP Pro, which despite the
fairly sparse specs, and only 2 GB ram, runs fairly well.
I originally wanted this thing as just a toy (hey I am not a card carrying tech junkie for nothing)
but I find I am using this at work to look up reference,
and now I am using it to try and change my spending habits by tracking my spending and attempting
to budget myself so hopefully I can truly change how I manage my money to afford getting
back out on my own. Hopefully it will work.
since I am a LOT lighter on HD space then I am used to in even compared to my other laptops
I am running portable apps, great stuff, they are just slimmed down, non installing fully functions apps.
for any of the office apps, I am using OpenOffice in a portable form my money management app
is GNUcash, both are very useful and FREE open source projects.
well back to my budget and some of these interesting programs on NatGeo
So sayeth John
