Reviews for the Asus Eee PC 1225C
Source: Netbooklive Archive.org version
The 1225C is a basically a bigger netbook. But, when pushing an HD display and Windows 7 Home Premium on the same hardware you get on 10 inch machines, you have to expect a poorer everyday experience, especially when dealing with low-power hardware. And that’s the case here as well. Having tested the 1025CE and the 1225C within days of each other, I found the latter more sluggish at everyday tasks, but also when dealing with multimedia content. Might be an issue with my test unit, but I personally doubt it.

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 3650: Integrated processor graphics card (e.g. in the Atom N2800) without dedicated memory. Most likely based on a PowerVR design similar to the GMA 500 but with higher clock rates.
These graphics cards are not suited for Windows 3D games. Office and Internet surfing however is possible.

Intel Atom: The Intel Atom series is a 64-Bit (not every model supports 64bit) microprocessor for cheap and small notebooks (so called netbooks), MIDs, or UMPCs. The speciality of the new architecture is the "in order" execution (instead of the usual and faster "out of order" execution). Therefore, the transistor count of the Atom series is much lower and, thus, cheaper to produce. Furthermore, the power consumption is very low. The performance per Megahertz is therfore worse than the old Pentium 3M (1,2 GHz on par with a 1.6 GHz Atom).
N2800:
Dual core Atom CPU with an integrated SGX545 PowerVR graphics card and a video decoder.

11.60":
This is a standard display format for tablet computers or small convertibles. You see more on the screen than on a smartphone but you can't use big resolutions well. On the other hand, mobility is not a problem.
