Good:  Ultra compact form factor, Consumes just 20W on full load, WLAN 802.11 b/g/n, Bundled keyboard and mouse, Silent operation.
Bad:  No optical drive.
Bottomline:  In spite of the lack of an optical drive, I give the Eee Box a double thumbs-up for its originality in design and execution. Youd be hard pressed to come by anything even close to this right now. This is especially great for people with LCD monitors ...

Good:  Compact form, Well-designed exterior
Bad:  Lack of innovation, Underpowered for a desktop
Bottomline:  When it comes to specifications, the Eee Box is absolutely identical with its mobile cousins. The same old trinity of the Intel Atom N270 processor, 1GB RAM and 80GB HDD does duty, along with Windows XP Home. This system roundup has proven itself in th...

Good:  Small size; low power consumption; quiet; great as a multimedia playback machine.
Bad:  Cannot handle 1080p ­videos.
Bottomline:  In use, the Asus Eee Box was ­actually a decent performer for casual computing tasks and ­multimedia playback, and actually looked good when placed next to other home theatre equipment. It’s rather a pity though that Asus did not put in a slightly b...

Bottomline:  The EeeBox really does what it’s supposed to and very well. It’s a well priced machine that is compact, looks good and does general office work well, including email, MS Office and internet. You could watch some XVID movies and TV shows, but t...

  Published: 2008-08-27

Good:  Very Inexpensive, Uses Very Little Power, Extremely Small
Bad:  Lacks CD/DVD Drive, No FireWire Port
Bottomline:  The ASUS Eee Box B202 brings the concept of an extremely low cost basic computer system to the desktop market. It delivers on this promise but also lacks many of the basic features one would expect from a desktop computer. It really is best suited for ...

Good:  Compact, stylish design, Low power consumption, Good Wi-Fi performance, Quick boot
Bad:  Weak multimedia performance, Slow hard drive, No optical drive
Bottomline:  When ASUS released the original Eee PC back in October 2007, the lilliputian laptop surprised the tech industry by spawning its own product category, the mini-notebook. Now, nearly a dozen Eee PC notebooks later comes the Eee Box, a diminuitive desktop...

Bottomline:  My time with the Eee Box was enjoyable, and the device is full of great ideas. Its the kind of thing Id recommend to less computer-literate family and friends, but the limitations of the Atom platform at present—specifically the underwhelming video...

Good:  Tiny. Quiet. Energy-efficient. "Express Gate" pre-Windows quick-boot mode. Windows XP Home (compatibility, software). Mountable on VESA monitor. Multithreaded processor.
Bad:  Smallish hard drive. No 3D performance worth speaking of. Low benchmark test numbers. Some apps may be incompatible. 1GB of memory. No CD or DVD drive. Its Windows, so youre vulnerable to Windows malware and viruses.
Bottomline:  The ASUS Eee Box PC is just what its billed to be: a tiny PC that runs Windows XP and is good for Web surfing and simple tasks....

Good:  Small design may have some aesthetic appeal; Draft-N wireless; pre-Windows ExpressGate lets you browse and do other basics seconds after turning on the power.
Bad:  Terrible performance and features compared with standard budget desktops; cheap laptop will offer similar capability, space savings and portability.
Bottomline:  Despite a few useful features, the ASUS Eee Box is a novelty at best. It cant come close to the same performance and robustness of even the most basic standard budget PC, and a low-end laptop can do everything it can do and more. The appeal of ASUS Eee PC...
