It's difficult to look at the Eee PC 901 without thinking of the 700, the netbook that started it all. When launched in September 2007, PC Pro was among the first to acclaim it as "a genuine step forward for the laptop, with unbelievable capabilities f...

We think taking on a 24-month contract, when both mobile broadband and the netbook area are so volatile and fast changing, might seem like a bad idea six months down the line. But it is not difficult to see why Asus is at the top of the netbook tree...

Asus already have several netbooks on the market but the first that we managed to get our hands on was this EeePC 901.Its big brother, the EeePC 901H comes with an internal hard drive, but the 901 uses flash memory instead--12 GB of it to be precise.Wi...

Long time companion. The original netbook has kept up well, even if its not perfect. The Eee PC was the original netbook, and its sales figures meant Asus could have been forgiven for sitting on their laurels. Instead, theyve spent the last few m...

This review is a little late, you might think, since Asus has just launched the EeePC 1000 and you would be absolutely right. I have been trying to review this machine since April and, unable to borrow a machine from Asus I actually put my money where...

The Original EeePC 701 by ASUS became one of the most popular products of last year and created an entirely new market for ultra-portable notebooks that cost less than a no-frills budget notebook. ASUS sold almost 700,000 units which obviously was a w...
On the whole, I must say that I’m quite impressed with the Eee PC 901. The original felt more like a secondary computer to me with limited appeal, however, the 901 can be used as a primary laptop. The Atom provides reasonable performance and the exc...

Weighing 1.1kg, the Eee PC 901 is slightly heavier than its predecessor, the 900, and it also sports a slightly different chassis and design. A glossy black finish gives the 901 a touch of menace and street cred, but its the guts of the unit that are...

The 901 is better than the 900, thanks to its faster CPU and networking features, but its still small and will take some time getting used to. Nevertheless, the more you use it, the more you fall in love with it. Its great for taking it on the road...

Hard on the heels of the Eee PC 900 comes the 901, now sporting a shiny new Intel Atom processor At first glance, there’s little to separate the latest 901 version of the Asus mini-laptop from the 900 model that was released less than two months ag...
The Eee PC 901 remains an attractive proposition for computing on the move. With its larger battery and lower-power processor, it’s not far from achieving a full working day’s use without the use of mains power - and that ought to be the goal...

No question: the answers yes. With the 901, Asus has released a sub-notebook that isnt simply a version of the original Eee PC with a bigger screen, its a major step forward that, at last, justifies the price differential. It also addresses its pre...
Theres no doubt, the Eee PC 901 is the machine the 900 should have been but wasnt. Its got more features, a better processor and graphics, much longer battery life and yet costs less. Even if the 900 was slightly cheaper, wed still go for the 901...
