The website is down because someone removed the X-Box

Public Universities are always running on a limited budget which means they sometimes come up with ?innovative? solutions. A couple of years back, an X-Box with some variant of Linux installed had been put in the server room to support a subject designed to teach computer-illiterate Philosophy students how to build their own web pages.

There has been a fair bit of debate about the final box art design for Windows 7; you may have seen earlier that CentrumXP revealed versions of it, which some were doubtful of, but now (thanks to Long Zheng) we may finally have official confirmation... and it seems that CentrumXP was correct.

Asus Eee Box B203 gets Celeron power

Asus has slipped another new Eee box model into its lineup called the B203. While pricing is unknown at this point, the CPU Asus chose for the machine could make it one of the least expensive models in the Eee Box line. The B203 runs on an Intel Celeron C220 processor that is priced lower than the Intel Atom typically used in Eee Box machines. Despite the Celeron being cheaper than the Atom, it should provide somewhat higher performance. Storage options include 80GB, 120GB, or 160GB hard drives. Other features include a quartet of USB ports, memory card reader, DVI out, Ethernet jack and integrated WiFi. Asus says that the B203 only needs 20 watts of power.

Asus Eee Box - First Look

As a brand name, Eee is a phenomenon. Scarily reminiscent of a console counterpart with which it rhymes, the Nintendo Wii, Asus' new Eee Box range has as much potential in the desktop sector. Of course I'm not saying Eee PCs of any variety will ever sell as much as Nintendo's vaunted little console, but the brand-name is incredibly easy to remember and can be an acronym for a multitude of things.

Like its mobile predecessors (the Asus Eee PC-901 or Eee PC-1000, to name but two) had a huge impact on notebooks, the Eee Box looks set to take the desktop market by storm. Frankly, we wouldn't be surprised if it makes a larger splash than Apple's Mac Mini did in its day.

ASUS Eee Box Preview & Intel's Atom Benchmarked

The Eee Box is effectively a headless notebook with no keyboard/mouse. In fact, the new version of the Eee PC features the exact same hardware configuration as the Eee Box - just in notebook form. Using notebook components in a œdesktop� PC is nothing new, Apple does it all the time with the majority of its machines. The iMac uses a mobile CPU, as does the Apple TV, despite neither one being a notebook.



Stylistically, ASUS did a tremendous job with the Eee Box. The system we have here is an early prototype, the final version will be available with a solid white or black finish (the random pixel pattern on our system wont make it to production). The machine is extremely sleek measuring 17.7 cm x 22.1 cm x 2.7 cm (6.97" x 8.7" x 1.06").



Without a keyboard or display to complain about and an even lower price tag ($269 or $299 depending on configuration), we set off to see if the Eee Box would have more universal appeal than the Eee PC.

The Linux Asus Eee PC Ships with Remotely Exploitable Flaw

Out of the box, the highly touted Asus Eee PC ships with a known code-execution vulnerability that allows a hacker to remotely gain root over a network.

According to a warning from RISE Security, the Linux-powered machine uses an old and vulnerable version of the Samba daemon for file and print sharing.
Using the Metasploit point-and-click attack tool, RISE Security was able to launch an exploit that took complete control of the Asus Eee PC.

Asus Sells out of Eee Box in Taiwan Debut

Typhoon Fung Wong failed to spoil Asustek Computer's (Asus) plan to launch the mini-desktop version of its Eee PC in Taiwan on Wednesday. The company sold out of the Eee Box due in part to a surprisingly low price. One thousand Eee Boxes were offered to Taiwanese consumers for NT$7,988 (US$262) through several retailers, including an e-store run by PChome Online. The e-tailer also offered the Eee Box with a 22-inch LCD monitor for NT$15,988.

"It's an amazing price, a very economical price," said Davis Tsai, general manager of Microsoft Taiwan, during the launch ceremony. Jerry Shen, CEO of Asustek, said his company expects to ship 100,000 to 200,000 Eee Boxes this year.

Asus Eee drops $100 in price

betanews.com - 26.02.2009

Asus Eee - in Desktop form.

Good news for fans of the Asus Eee PC! The desktop version of the Eee PC will be available in August, this summer. The price is unannounced, however it is expected that Asus will announce the price very soon.

With the desktop, buyers will get a Windows XP Home machine running on Intel's Atom N270 processor at 1.6GHz, 1GB of DDR2 RAM and an 80GB hard drive.

The usual connectivity options will be in place, along with three USB ports and a VGA out for connecting a monitor - you'll need to supply the screen yourself, of course.

Asus has said that it will add Linux to the mix later in the year, at which time we expect other hardware configurations to surface too.

ASUS' CEO Discusses Intel Atom, HDDs For 8.9" Eee PC 900

Last week, official
details began to trickle out concerning ASUS' new Eee PC 900 sub-notebook.
Today, ASUS’s CEO opened the floodgates when it comes to specifications for its
second generation Eee PC notebook.



As previously reported, the new Eee PC 900 features a new 8.9”
1024x600 display in place of the 800x480 display found on the original
Eee PC 401. The larger screen with a higher resolution should help to
silence some of the more vocal critics who bemoaned the needs to constantly
scroll horizontally and vertically to read webpages.



Another change with the new Eee PC 900 comes in the area of
storage. The original Eee PC first was made available with 4GB of storage. As
the months progressed, ASUS released 2GB
and 8GB
models to occupy lower and higher price points respectively.

ASUS Eee PC 1000HE gets new Atom, 9.5hr battery

ASUS on Monday hoped to claim supremacy in netbooks with the Eee PC 1000HE. The variant of ASUS' familiar 10-inch netbook is the company's first to use the new 1.66GHz Atom processor that gets both a faster 667MHz system bus and faster integrated graphics that ASUS claims is HD-capable. The new chip combined with an equally new high-density battery gives the system as much as 9.5 hours of runtime without using a bulky add-on.

Neowin Review: Asus Eee PC 1000

After years of owning what is considered a standard-size laptop (14.1"� Compaq V1000), I decided to replace it and upgrade to something smaller, lighter, with better battery life and about the same power. So clearly a netbook was the solution to my problem. I'm reviewing the Asus Eee PC 1000 - not to be confused with the 1000H, 1000HD, 1000HA or the 1000HE (for a full list of differences, check out Asus' comparison chart). The biggest difference between the Eee PC 1000 and its sister models is that this is the only model that features a solid state drive and an estimated six hours of battery life.

ASUS Eee PC 900 reviewed: 'staggering' value for money

ASUS' original Eee might have impressed many with its super-budget price tag, but the relatively small 7-inch screen dissuaded others from considering it as a "proper" laptop. While the new Eee PC 900 might only have 1.9-inches more, it means the ultraportable now musters 1,024 x 600 resolution; UK site Trusted Reviews took a first-look at the 900 and found that the extra pixels - among other things - are enough to make the laptop into a true contender. Not as slick as a MacBook Air or Sony TZ, perhaps, but a fraction of the price.
