From Intel’s Atom range platforms with such a low cost variant form the mainstream and the high end market of the still standing Core 2 Duo’s and the current heavy weights the Core 7i chipsets, but for the people who want to use their home Pc for a more normal based and on a day to day basis without the usual, roll out the case, DIY style computing but for a more utility base operations, of what I meant is for the usual surf on the net, do some Word processes like word and small enough to set and forget in the corner of the room.
But we seen the ASUS EE PC range with the all small and sensible Atom processors running at 1.6GHz and a max Ram count of about 1 to 2 GB of DDR or higher end DDR2 memory, with only just about $600 to as low as $300 for a bargain netbook, too much to ask when you want to give a present to kid with a laptop and you did not dig a hole in the ground to find it, or even pay for it. So we have seen the mobile series, now we are going to see a more stationary design, from ASUS the EEE PC Top 1602. More like a Sony variant of a one pack PC suite, but only being to go about $500 when it comes up, it looks like a real bargain for a kids PC desk top or an Internet Surfing PC. It has the new Dual Atom processor that has double the cache memory shared L2 and a 1.6GHz frequency for the least demand Apps around, even the OS system that is included to the pack is a option of windows XP professional and the free Linux operation system, with no more than 1GB of ram and 160Gb of HDD space, we would think that the desktop all in one is not powerful enough to plough to the most demanding apps, like it still played WMP (windows media player) quite fine but wouldn’t expect any gaming performance either, with its onboard Intel graphics accelerator able only to play, say Starcraft #1. Well there is still features left in the ASUS EEE PC, with a compatible ASUS keyboard and mouse and an onboard webcam for those pole who use these for web messaging like Skype or MSN.
So all of these, a small and very cheap net desktop all in one with a stylish keyboard and mouse, and the silicone hard spot is being encased with a white or black variant colour and an imitation IMAC design. So definitely a good cheap desktop to have and a very useful for net surfing or any other low demands apps.
