Atom-Powered Asus Eee PC 900A For Under $300

One of the biggest selling features on the Asus Eee PC is the fact that it’s affordable. Breaking new ground is the Asus Eee PC 900A, a netbook that can be had for less than $300. That’s the same price that you’d pay for a 16GB iPhone! With contract!

All you have to do is head on over to Best Buy to discover the Asus Eee PC 900A, an 8.9-inch subnotebook that happens to be powered by a 1.6GHz Intel Atom processor. Aside from the inclusion of Atom, the 900A is basically identical to the older Eee PC 900. Key features include a 4GB SSD, 1GB RAM, WiFi, and Linux OS.

Considering that this thing is half the price of an Asus Eee PC 1000H, I’d say it’s a pretty good score. You may want to grab a couple SDHC cards though, as 4GB doesn’t go very far.
