    Nice. Great for offroad duties, as you say, because of the solid state internals.

    I use my 701 for astronomy - again, out in the field where HD's just hate it at sub-zero temps.

    I wish I had the larger screen, but I bought mine when the 4Gb 701 was the latest. It was running Xandros when i bought it, but is now running XP SP3.

    These are incredibly versatileunits, and are a hackers dream. I've even seen a few running MacOSX.

    LOL! Great stuff.

    oddly enough they dont like being used upside down... and prone to overheating it appears.

    i have already had a few thru here looking for cooling solutions for them.

    i have based my car computer prototype on this cpu and it certainly does a good job.

    oh and omaroo, you can get upgraded screens for the 700's i think, they have started to do plug in touch screens for the 900 and 901. i found most of them on ebay just searching for eee pc 901.
