The Asus Eee PC 1000's 10-inch screen walks a fine line between Netbook and regular laptop, but the higher price may drive away value-seeking consumers.

As the market crowds, we're getting increasingly spoilt for choice by mini laptops. With its higher price point of £369, the Asus Eee PC 1000 is in danger of pricing itself out of the low-cost market, even if it does boast the biggest slab of SSD storage this side of Apple's MacBook Air.

The Eee PC 1000, like the 1000H, is a compelling mini-notebook with a good-size screen and a spacious keyboard. We appreciated its zippy performance and nearly 5 hours of battery life, and the Linux interface remains refreshingly simple. However, you really have to like solid state drives to willingly pay $699 for this system when both the Windows XP–powered Eee PC 1000H and MSI Wind NB cost less than $600.

The largest Eee PC to-date, the 1000 may be suffering from size creep but it’s still a fantastic machine to use. The battery life is impressive and the build quality is still as high as ever. The only problem is, you need ask yourself, at this price, would you be better off opting for a standard notebook? We have a feeling the answer will be no.

At £369 for the EEEPC1000-BK002 with Linux and a 40Gb SSD, and £349 for the EEEPC1000-BK007X with Windows an 80Gb HDD (these are Asus' suggested retail prices, inc VAT), the Eee PC 1000 is priced similarly to the MSI Wind U10 and has pretty much the same specification in its Windows form too. Of course bountiful battery life is the ace up the Eee PC 1000’s sleeve and the ability to last for an entire working day is a deeply desirable feature. Of course the trade-off is in its size and weight, and the Eee PC 1000 is biggest, heaviest (in its Windows/HDD form) netbook so far available. Though perilously close to a normal laptop in terms of size, its outstanding battery life makes the Eee PC 1000 worth considering is prolonged mains-free use is your main concern.

The Eee PC 1000 is a fabulous machine. It precariously straddles the line between netbook and ultraportable, but it's well equipped, well designed and great for those who need a laptop on the move.

80% Asus Eee PC 1000 - 40GB SSD Linux Edition
Source: Trusted Reviews
Though excellent in almost every respect, the price is a little too dear given that the Windows XP version of the same machine will retail for £20 less and feature a larger hard drive. If you fancy the form factor over the 9in 901 and lust after SSD storage it will serve you exceedingly well, but at this price it's not the one we'd recommend buying.

Comment

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 950: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 is an integrated (onboard) graphic chip on Mobile Intel 945GM chipset. It is a faster clocked version of the GMA 900 and supports no hardware T&L (Transform & Lightning) accelleration (which is required for some games).

Only older games can be played fluently with these graphics chips (if they were not too demanding). Shared memory graphic cores in this category got the advantage of less heat production and longer battery runtimes. For office, internet, image processing, and video editing tasks these graphics chips are still useable without any restrictions.
