Asus S101 To Rival The MacBook Air

Posted on Oct 5, 08 10:30 PM PDT

If you have always been hankering after the MacBook Air but do not have the budget for it, here's an alternative - the Asus S101. This amazingly slim notebook won't cause you to dig into your kids' college savings, and measures a mere 0.7" thin with the following specifications :-

• Intel Atom processor
• 1GB RAM
• 10.2" LED screen at WSVGA (1,024 x 600) resolution
• 802.11n connectivity
• Ethernet port
• Bluetooth support
• Multitouch trackpad
• 4-in-1 memory card reader
• SSD option
• 20GB of free online storage

Strangely enough, Asus has taken the same route as Apple by including a non-replaceable, 5-hour polymer battery. What gives? The 16GB SSD model running on Windows XP will retail for $699, as with the 32GB SSD and Linux-powered machine, while the 64GB Linux S101 will cost an additional $100.
