very mad. and it's because that's the tracking number they gave me like 7 hours ago that still isn't valid! I paid more to ship it one day than I did for the actual product and it takes over a whole for UPS to even PICK IT THE FUCK UP.

not to mention, they didn't have Sopranos Season 4 the other day. fuck them.

No. Wait a few months and the market will be saturated with eeePC clones, with better CPU's, more storage, and nicer builds.

The eee PC will fit in my gadget bag, which makes it ideal for photography.

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #20 on:** May 16, 2008, 07:35:15 PM »

Well, I agree with Malek.

But I doubt you can wait.

You're probably buying it right now.

The MSI Wind is only slightly larger than the 20 gig eeePC. It will perform better and look better.

TVC15 · « **Reply #24 on:** May 16, 2008, 07:41:16 PM »

What are the physical dimensions on the wind? Fitting in my gadget bag is my main priority. Does the wind have solid state drives?

Flannel Boy · « **Reply #25 on:** May 16, 2008, 07:42:30 PM »

10.23 x 7.08 x 0.748-inches

edit
The eeepc is about 9" x 7"

TVC15 · « **Reply #26 on:** May 16, 2008, 07:45:17 PM »

Solid state drives? And when are they shipping.

Drives, unfortunately. They are shipping in June.

The economy wins.

Only one mouse button? The tradeoff for having a better keyboard is offering a shittier mouse?

Is there any word on what Dell is going to be offering? I'm not going subnotebook if it's not solid state.

As for buying EEE PC answer this:

1) Are you a gadget whore

If yes then buy it without hesitation.

Here's my stance: If Prole WOWS me with his eee pc in person, I will get one. As of right now, the only competitor is whatever Dell is offering, and I'm not too crazy about Dell's drivers. On a laptop, they can be easily replaced, but that probably won't be the situation (at least right away) on a proprietary machine.

Update on subnotebook shopping:

As of right now, the EEE PC 901 looks to be the best, but they won't be around until June. The MSI Wind lacks a solid state drive, so it's out. The Dell subnotebook, well, there's only a few quotes and some rumors so far, but going by Michael Dell's quotes, the starting price will be 500 dollars. They are, however, working with someone on some sort of (I assume integrated) GPU, which doesn't mean jack to me. According to what I've been reading around the net, there's not much that special about the Intel Atom, though. Many just think it's getting press because Intel knows how to hype a brand name. HP's subnotebook sucks ass and gets shameful battery life.

bork · « **Reply #38 on:** May 16, 2008, 11:35:46 PM »

Bought it, but they were sold out and will be getting more in stock by Monday.

TVC15 · « **Reply #39 on:** May 16, 2008, 11:55:13 PM »

Let me know what you think. If I hear good things, I'm ordering next week.

I also bought this to get me in the mood~

There wasn't a Thursday WDYB thread, but the last things I bought recently were on that day. I'm getting back into book reading. It's comforting to be treated to writing that isn't canned, delivered badly, or just plain isn't there. I'm looking at you, film and video game industry.

Reading through this right now before I start on those three:
