Produced as the successor of Eee PC 701, the Asus Eee PC 900 comes with bigger screen at 9 inch diagonally. The screen now support 1024 x 600 resolution instead of 800 x 480, that make it more convenient in reading documents.

Review Quotes:
The Eee PC 900 is all about ease of use and portability, so it’s churlish to grumble about specifications. The little laptop ticks all the right boxes when it comes to features and performance. It’s probably not going to replace your 15in workhouse notebook, but it might well become a favoured second laptop to take with you on your travels.

Acer wants rich people to buy its laptops. Lots of them.

Asus is believed to have sold over 1m Eees since the ground-breaking mini computer went on sale in October 2007. That’s roughly 167,000 a month, so Dell is clearly anticipating strong demand for its machine going forward. There’s certainly been demand for the Asus product, though supply has frequently failed to meet it.
