It’s the most powerful and also the most expensive netbook that i have layed my eyes on. So let’s see whether its performance and the overall package justify its price .
The 1201N comes in two flavors, black and silver-grey. Except for the keys and the base, which are black matte, the entire unit has an overall glossy finish, but a brush metal look. Ports are well-placed at either side and the built-in speakers are in the front, which isn’t the best thing. When using the machine on the lap, you might cover the speakers, which easily drowns the sound. Overall, it’s a sexy netbook to look at a convenient one to carry around.
Features
In terms of features, it is the hardware that distinguishes this machine from all other netbooks out there. In fact, the hardware make this netbook as powerful and convenient as an ultra-portable laptop. Built around Nvidia’s Ion platform, the Asus EeePC 1201N is powered by an Intel Atom N330 processor 1.6 GHz and is hyper-threaded well a good thing for a multi-tasking environment. It has 2 GB DDR2 RAM, a 250 GB hard drive, discrete graphics (GeForce 9400m) and a 12.1-inch glossy screen (1366 x 768). There’s no optical drive, but that’s not yet a downside on netbooks. The laps are pre-loaded with Windows 7 Starter, there are variants with Windows 7 Home Premium too. Other features are rather common, such as HDMI, VGA, 3 USB, audio jacks, webcam and a memory card reader. Connectivity options include Wi-Fi N, gigabit Ethernet and Bluetooth.
