Re: [dwm] Asustek EEE PC 1000 Atom 1GB 40G SSD Linux Black

Still using X31 almost every day. On (road) trips it is always with me.
Dirt, sand, rough handling ... and it is still alive. When it dies, I
will definitely go for a used X4* or X6*.
Two friends of mine bought eees (first generation) and I was not
impressed when tried to use them. Smaller resolution than Xes and as I
felt a lot smaller durability.
For me X is small enough to go with me everywere I want it to go and at
the same time big enough to do almost all things I want it to do. And with extended battery you get at least 5 hours of awakeness.

Don't really know about specifications of eees but from what I saw and tested X31 is far superior in every aspect of usability. And it is cheaper.
