Finally, a new Eee PC is announced that can be easily visually identified apart from its other several thousand variants. Asus seems to want to prove their dominance in the netbook area by creating a product that manages to fill the oxymoron of the ‘high-end, low-end computer’ category.
Announced several days ago is the Eee S101. Considering we are calling this a netbook, you can probably guess the specs: 1.6GHz Atom CPU, 1GB of RAM, 10.2" 1024×600 screen, and 3x USB 2.0 ports (I’ll spare you the rest of the generic netbook specs). At least the S101 throws something interesting into the mix, as it will be offering SSD storage solutions of 16/32GB and up to a 64GB SSD is rumored to be available.
This new model looks quite visually appealing with some nice rounded edges, and what appears to be brushed aluminum. The rounded edges of the screen look as though the S101 will have somewhat of a flush close similar to that of a Macbook Air. The S101 is thinner than its predecessors, and will come in brown or graphite. Check out the official images below:
