Am planning to buy a laptop in a month or so.
Any idea when the white color model , newer version (160Gb/6 Cell) coming out in India ?
How does the Eee 1000h compares to the Acer One and newer Acer one to be released ? 80GB HDD space is fine for me.
White color? Dunno when it will come.
160Gb/6Cell? Lets c. hopefully it comes real soon 
wait for a month and then decide 
Both have the exact same chipset etc so same performance wise.
Decide based on the prices and other stuff (like the 6 cell, for a cheaper price than the 1000H) 
see my review :http://www.techenclave.com/reviews-and-previews/asus-eee-pc-1000-h-review-117470.html
sorry for the poor image Quality as it was taken from some chinese made cam which i lended it from one of the friend as i also wanted to post some Video demo
Superb review! Repped.
BTW what is the maximum resolution it will go to with VGA output? I was thinking of attaching it to my LCD TV.
sorry for the delay me out of town
nz, I could test with the max possible for me= 1440X900 n that was fine.
otherwise i guess you can check out the specs of the 945 chipset as well? if the chipset supports it then pretty much every mobo based on it should be able to take the required res.
PS: typing from a 701 at home by the way 
n this keypad is a nightmare in comparison with the Acer and every other 9/10’ i guess
Thanks man.
I have decided to get one this coming week. Someone is picking one up for about 16k (Linux version) in UK.
nice comprehensive review!
Updates:
1: I had put in a query on the acer site and got a call from one of their marketing/sales guys in charge. As per him, the 6cell batt will be available as an accessory soon, but you will need to get it separately. wouldnt say anything on a 6cell version or exact costs (~4k)
2: Theres ALSO a version of the aspire one available WITHOUT XP, ALL OTHER SPECS same. retails for bout 2k less. (~<20k)
The Linux version is quoted at 19.9k WITHOUT bargaining.
can somebody clarify this issue?..
i bought a acer aspire one 8gb version with linux for my mom
she will use it just for word and power point for her institute
i wanted to keep linux as it will stop the virus problems that she gets regularly from college computers where she collects research papers
but she is apprehensive of open office
so i want to make it dual boot with the linux present in it and also a microxp of 100mb installer (230mb installed) with another small footprint office as well
now my question is
- is it possible to make the ssd dual boot?
- i do not have external cd drive…how to install xp/linux(the given version) through flash drive?
- how slow is xp on the ssd…the linux runs pretty good
i need to do it now…as i am not returning to india…one of my friend is carrying it…
- he will carry his own lappy as he is going during the semester…will it be a problem?
Yes
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaly !!!
If you can make partitions… yes !!!
Flash drive should work. You can get a bootable flash tut on the net
Dunno abt this…
Customs are a PITA man. AFAIK 1 laptop (company) and 1 laptop (personal) is ok. So if the lappy he is carrying belongs to his company then he can get ur lappy along or else deeeeeeeeeek Customs !!!
@gods_gift. If your friend isnt carrying too much stuff over (25k) he can even declare the lappy else just put it in the luggage its small enough to be missed or mistaken for a dvd player etc. else at max u might have to pay them something, shouldn’t come to much.
Xp on SSD? I installed it on an Asus E701, boot up is a bit slow but otherwise it runs pretty ok.
I would suggest the 120Gb xp version if you havent already bought it yet. 8Gb is too less + all the hassle of installing xp on it. Installing dual boot linux on a 120Gb might be easier
Had read this some where but dint have the links to prove it 
mate just check this link.I followed their instructions to the t and was able to install xp pro on my new eepc.works like a charm.
