Hi Xtian,

Can you give us the web site link to this offer. There are hundreds to retailers for this laptop, offering different deals, including broadband which is not something a manufacturer would offer.

Hello is this the laptop?

Buy the ASUS Eee PC 2GB White Handheld PC online from PC World.

If this is it then I do not think it is worth getting.

It would certainly need upgrade on RAM.

Altough I don't have any personal experience with Globe broadband myself, living in another country, just type in "globe broadband" - google, apart from advertising, the rest are just blogs to say what a poor service Globe broadband provide. They did not provide much in the way of spec for that laptop, "Good quality sound" means nothing. It's almost like they could be bothered to list the full spec, so my first impression of Globe... not very impressed.

As for the laptop itself, to be honest your not going to be able to do much more than surf the internet. You won't be able to use your normal PC applications with it. It is basically an XP Compatible version of Linux installed, with no option of changing, only a 2gb flash HDD, not leaving any room for video's, music and files. The only pro I can find is that there's not so much that can go wrong with the laptop software wise.

Overall, not very impressed at all.

EDIT: Sorry Jelly Bean... your too fast for me lol

I totaly agree madmonkey.

Could buy a better mobile phone/cell phone and use that to surf.
