Asus Announces the Beefed up Eee PC 1000HE

comment Commentsprint Printemail EmailDeliciousDiggStumbleUponRedditFacebookSlashdot

Asus is typically good about tossing out press releases when they drop a new product, but this time around they’ve just put up their latest netbook up for pre-order, hoping that we’d catch on. Well, as you might have guessed by now we did, and without further adieu, let me introduce to you the Asus Eee PC 1000HE (E is for extended!).

The new little beastie will feature a 10-inch LED screen, a 160GB HDD, a 1.66GHz Atom N280 processor, and built in 802.11b/g/n wireless and Bluetooth 2.0. It’ll all come wrapped in a very modest $399 (and an additional $25 off if you’re in the Facebook group), and will run for up to 9.5 hours using Asus’ Super Hybrid Engine battery technology.

If you’re looking to pre-order, be sure to check this out.

These netbooks would be a lot more appealing if they had a DVD drive, as it'd double the things' usefulness

No no no you got it all wrong... HE stands for High Explosive. This thing is a bomb. It's made to be sold to the Taliban and Iraqi insurgents markets.
