| | | | The Eee Box is a mini desktop PC with huge possibilities. With a slim svelte design, the world's smallest desktop PC allows an array of space saving options. Plus, it's so easy to use and whisper quiet. The simple intuitive interface lets inexperienced users get started right away. There's no technical manual- simply plug it in and you are good to go! The Eee Box is ready to go in a matter of seconds with the exclusive Express Gate - an unbelievably quick boot up solution. You can power up and be on your preferred web browser, IM chat, photo manager or Skype in only 7 seconds. Asus includes a special VESA mounting kit that in 3 easy steps, lets you mount the Eee Box on the back of LCD monitors making it an all-in-one computer. Intel Graphic Media Accelerator 950 Graphics Card Wireless 802.11 b/g/n 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet Memory Stick/Memory Stick PRO/ SD / SDHC Card Reader 4 x USB 2.0, SPDIF; Microphone-in, DVI-I, RJ-45 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.
