ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10-Inch Netbook
Despite its new appearance in the netbook world, ASUS, which was formerly known as a computer component manufacturer – such as: motherboard, vga, CD/DVD drive, etc – now has punches its spur on the top lines of netbook manufacturer. Their breakthrough product, ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10-Inch Netbook, really stands out among netbook products. Its features, user friendliness or production’s process seem to attract more customers to glance at this versatile netbook.
The entire cast frame which forms this netbook uses an infusion system rather than the old fashion way of sprayed paint. This environmental friendly technology is believed to be more resistant to color deterioration and also provide more vibrant color. Who doesn’t want a luxury looking gadget? I bet no one. However, the luxurious of this netbook is not only outside but also inside.
Horsed by the new 1.6 GHz Intel Atom Processor which require only 2.5 watt of power, compared to 35 watts of Intel Core Duo Processor, this netbook consumes small amount of power hence prolong the battery life. The combination of energy saving Processor, 6600 mAh battery and the exclusive ASUS Super Hybrid Engine are the main trio actors which able to retain the battery for 7 hours without charging in the Power Saving Mode. Remember to switch the default Mode to this Power Saving Mode to increase the battery span and also to reduce the noise. If you ever need a longer battery life, which I doubt, you can try to get a bigger capacity (bigger mAh) battery which is a bit bulkier but then, on the other hand, you need not carry the even bulkier charger anymore to your office. That sounds to be an advantage exchange for me.
By default, ASUS Eee PC 1000HA 10-Inch Netbook is shipped with 1 GB of RAM. For some people, they prefer to invest another $30 to get 2 GB of RAM. If you are among these people then this netbook is the right one for you. The RAM is very easy to install, you only need a small screw driver to open the RAM enclosure, replace the old RAM, and that even wouldn’t void the warranty. After the new RAM installation, don’t forget to go to the BIOS, press F2 when the system start up, and just click save changes and exit. You don’t have to change any configuration at all on the BIOS, just save and exit. This is because Windows will not detect the new RAM unless the BIOS is updated.
