I still use my 1015PX EEE on a regular basis - the keyboard is flaky (dust under the keys?) but it comes in handy to share network via Ethernet connection to a something without WiFi
No USB 3 and only 2GB of RAM isn't great; although you can browse simple websites reasonably well, and I was surprised streaming live YouTube content in VLC works fine
- tinco 6y agoOnly 2GB of ram? I'm pretty sure my EEE (901) had at least 4GB. I bet you could get that upgraded for less than $10 now. edit: I think I'm wrong about this, a little googling shows that support for 4gb ram on atom n550 is dodgy at best. I don't remember taking a soldering iron to it. I really did Ruby webdev on a machine with 2GB ram, crazy!
- arprocter 6y agoCould be one of those situations where sometimes 4GB will work, but it officially only supports 2? The HP MicroServers are like that
