So what can you do with this mini notebook? Practically anything you would do with a Windows-powered one. And although we didn't mind the unified, slightly chintzy-feeling touchpad button that you can left- or right-click on, our kid tester found it confusing at first.

The keyboard is cramped but is just big enough to touch-type on the biggest annoyance is the proximity of the Up arrow key and right Shift key we accidentally moved up a line on several occasions while trying to capitalize a letter. An extra USB port, Ethernet and modem connections, and headphone and mic jacks line the left side. Our white model (black and other colors will come later) features an SD Card slot, two USB ports, and a VGA port on the right. Overall, the Eee PC's design is fairly solid and incredibly travel-friendly for the price. On the other hand, we don't see many people above the age of 50 using this device as their primary computer unless they hook it up to a bigger external LCD, which start at about $170.

A three-year-old accustomed to a 14-inch LCD didn't mind the screen while she was having fun with Mickey and friends on. We found the small seven-inch, 800 x 480-pixel display pretty easy on the eyes, especially when compared with Ultra-Mobile PCs like the OQO model 02 (5 inches) and FlipStart 1.0 (5.6 inches), but most users don't have that point of reference.

Users who don't like the simplified Asus menu, can use this tip to switch to a regular KDE desktop, which looks just like Windows XP.
