The so called ‘Nettop’ ASUS Eee Box EB1501 which made a splash when it was announced and subsequently released in the United Kingdom, and now, those of us living under the Stars and Stripes will be getting it soon, as the mini-desktop appeared on Amazon.com, available to pre-order for American customers.
The EB1501 is in ASUS Eee PC line, which started as UMPCs, then became netbooks, and now have become the ‘Nettop’ line of thin-client looking desktop PCs. With the low asking price and small form-factor, they also compete with Apple’s Mac Mini product, which is rarely discussed in the internet blogosphere, but quietly updated every 6 months (or so).
The specs of the EB1502 are decent: Intel Atom dual-core processor (1.6GHz), 2GB of RAM, 250GB of Hard Drive space, and WiFi, HDMI ports, and a slew of other common (USB, Ethernet) ports. The EB1501 will set you back $479, with no shipping date in sight. Keep in mind that Amazon has a history of (occasionally) taking pre-orders for objects that are far (9 months) away.
