Amazon.com Product Description
Moving from the laptop to the desktop, Asus has taken the miniaturization efforts its applied to its popular line of Eee PC laptops and created the Eee Box--a stylish, low-power desktop PC with a minimal footprint. Slim as a paperback novel, the Eee Box can help you reclaim space on your desk or it can mount on the back of a VESA-compatible HDTV for use as a PC media hub. And despite a choice of colors, including black and silver, the Eee Box is overwhelmingly green with its Intel Atom processor helping to reduce system power requirements to just 20W--which helps to reduce your electric bill as well as your carbon footprint. It's also barely audible, producing just 26 decibels of noise--just above the level of a quiet whisper.



The Asus Eee Box in white.


To overcome clutter, the Eee Box mounts to the rear of any LCD monitor.


With a 7-second boot time and the Asus Express Gate start-up screen, you'll enjoy almost instantaneous access to the Internet and video chatting.




The Eee Box includes four USB ports, digital audio output for surround sound, and Gigabit Ethernet for fast wired networking.
It runs the familiar Windows XP Home operating system and it's powered by the 1.6 GHz Intel Atom processor, which uses a brand new design structure based on hafnium-infused circuitry to help reduce electrical current leakage and conserve energy. Other features include an 80 GB hard drive, 1 GB of installed RAM, Draft-N Wi-Fi networking (802.11b/g/n), four USB ports (including two on the front), DVI video output, and included round metal stand.

An accessible touch sensor button and vertical placement exudes a seamless and futuristic outlook, while smooth curves further accentuate a refined form that compliments most interior designs. The Eee Box even mounts VESA LCD displays for the ultimate space-saving solution (VESA 75/100 standard mount). With the exclusive Express Gate, ASUS' innovative fast boot technology, you can easily access the Internet, manage pictures, or communicate over IM/Skype just 7 seconds after boot up.

Compared to full-sized desktop solutions, the Eee Box's energy-efficient performance reduces power consumption by up to 90 percent. The Eee Box also utilizes Green Design and is made with only earth-friendly materials for reduced CO2 emissions, and it conforms to stringent RoHS and WEEE standards. Thus, you can be socially responsible while working, learning and playing in style. The innovative ASUS thermal solution also integrates a unique heat dissipation module with the AI fan, allowing quiet (26db) and comfortable computing.

The Intel Atom processor uses a brand new design structure that packs in 47 million transistors into a single chip sized at just 22mm (0.87 inches), and it uses just 2.5 watts of power--less than 1/10 of the 35 watts used by an Intel Core 2 Duo processor--for excellent battery management. This 1.6 GHz Atom processor also includes a power-optimized front side bus of 533 MHz for faster data transfer on demanding mobile applications and a 512 KB L2 cache (which temporarily stores data).

You get four USB 2.0 ports (two on the front of the PC), a DVI output for connecting to external monitors, headphone/line-out jack with digital audio output for surround sound, and a multi-format memory card slot (compatible with SD/MMC/Memory Stick media).

The Eee Box supports the latest Wi-Fi 802.11n wireless standard, providing up to six times faster connectivity than previous 802.11b/g wireless. You can download a 30 minute video in only 44 seconds (speed dependent on video source)--minimizing the wait and allowing time for twice as many movies. It's also backward compatible with 802.11b/g networks, commonly found in older home routers. You also get super-fast wired connectivity via the Gigabit Ethernet port (10/100/1000).

It comes preinstalled with the Microsoft Windows XP Home operating system, which offers more experienced users an enhanced and innovative experience that incorporates Windows Live features like Windows Live Messenger for instant messaging and Windows Live Mail for consolidated email accounts on your desktop. Complementing this is Microsoft Works, which equips the user with numerous office applications to work efficiently.

5 out of 5 stars ASUS Eee Box - Good fit!   November 20, 2008
I am pleased with the ASUS Box! Nice system, very easy to use. Though this model comes with basic Windows XP, I was able to install a very stable Linux OS (Ubuntu 8.10) on it. It actually runs better than my Mac Mini.

ASUS has a nice line of product, the only downside to them is their customer service. The user forums are exceptional, and if you don't mind reading through those to solve a problem, you'll find you have a really nice product. Certainly a good system for folks who are not afraid to read the fine manual.

Amazon has about the best price on it, too.




4 out of 5 stars A good option for small computer   November 17, 2008
Good price for a small computer, don't spect a powerfull one, but a good one for the size, price a practical. the only issue if you have to recover your hard drive system, you'll need a external CD drive. the HDD comes in two partitions. with a DVI-HDMI cable you CAN connect to a TV with HDMI input.


5 out of 5 stars Great little PC   November 16, 2008
This little PC is perfect for surfing the web and most non-gaming applications. The included keyboard and mouse are worth replacing. I bought a wireless mouse/keyboard (microsoft wireless desktop 1000) that works great with it. Doing this also frees up one USB port on the back so I can plug my external hard drive in. I had a little trouble with windows update until I disabled the wireless network (using ethernet instead). You can hardly tell the thing is on it is so quiet. The back of monitor mount is really cool.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome FTP Server   November 12, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is exactly what I needed to run an FTP Server 24/7. With barely over 23W at load I can keep this up constantly while my 1300W beast can be shut down. I hooked up my external USB 500GB hard drive and I have all I need. For half the price of a Dell Hybrid you can't go wrong with this little gem.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect little 24/7 Box!   November 11, 2008
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I love this little machine. I would buy 10 more if I only had the need to do so. I probably use this computer a little differently than most, but really this computer gives 98% of the people out there all the performance they need, all while taking little space, making virtually zero noise, using little energy, and all at a very low price. If my 79 year old grandmother didn't already have a desktop PC, I'd have bought this machine for her in a heartbeat.

Now, like I said, I probably use this machine a little differently than most. I have it set up behind my entertainment center, behind my HDTV. I have it attached to my network, really, to serve 5 different purposes. One, as a general file server for the various machines on my network. Two, as a streaming media server (music and video files) to my PS3 and XBOX 360 to enjoy everything on my HDTV and through the AVR. Four, I use it to operate as my BitTorrent box; I use this machine to download and seed torrents without tying up any of my other machines. And finally, and really the primary reason I got it, as a machine to run 24/7, 365 days a year to operate my MagicJack as my home phone service. I have my MagicJack wired into my home wiring so with this machine running constantly, I get a home phone line for the equivalent of $20/month.

Oh, and really the reason that I chose this machine to use as a 24/7 box (other than the fact that it's dead silent and tiny) is that even at full bore, it never draws more than 16 watts (measured at the outlet with my Kill-A-Watt). It used a fraction of the electricity compared to the old PC I used to operate 24/7 for all these purposes. Can't beat it. Especially for the [cheap] price. Oh, and I rather like the included keyboard.

Additionally, because of this box and the snappiness of the Atom processor (plus its low power consumption) I've also ordered a 10" MSI Wind netbook with the Atom processor.
