I would never buy a touch screen computer. I occasionally use a couple at work and I just dont thing they are all they add up to. As an aside, I never liked using a mouse in the early days of Windows, but now I use a mouse every day. Still, I dont expect to be using a touchscreen at home any time soon. Think of all of us 2 thumb and 2 left handed peoplke who are just as happy to use a keyboard and mouse to get around...
Comment made about the PC Authority article: Asus Eee Top ET1602, a new type of desktop PC? An impressive touchscreen all-in-one PC for an equally impressive price, but the single-core Atom holds it back

I personally love the concept of touch screen, especially on smaller systems designed to be portable. The finger prints all over screen issue still sucks. |

I saw this at Harvey Norman last weekend and i am seriously thinking of buying one this weekend! Did a bit of research, i think asus tocuhscreen is the best buy out off all - HP too expensive and way to big. But the only thing with the asus one is they are missing a dvd drive - i guess i don't really need it these days - everything is download. Anyway Touchscreen is the way to go man!! |

I guess it's a great entry level all in one PC with an intuitive interface and UI. especially at this time of year where economy isn't at the best and market is slowing down, consumers are very aware of the product they are purchasing. most people want something value for money, and I think the ASUS Eee TOP is a great solution, considering the price range vs product specs. I know it's not the most powerful desktop in the world. but it's just the right tool for everyday computing. surf the net, word processing, music, downloading, facebook or compiling a photo albums. i think it's an efficient tool. you don't need something that cost $1700-$2000+ for a high end, eg. HP TouchSmart I think it's an overkill, only if you are after a high-end model. but for that price, i'd rather get a good performance desktop. |

Hey guys,
I just tested this out in Harvey Norman, it was great! Spec wise it's perfect for a second computer! It's also a little fun and my little brothers and sisters can use it!
I think it's worth the money as a second PC in the home for surfing the web and simple stuff like that! |

I could see these being great for classrooms. Small, cheap, touchscreen devices that can fit on the desk and still alow plenty of room for taking notes by hand could be a winner. Do they do an educational discount for these things? If not, they should, it'd be great. |

does anyone know how big is the unit? I dun hv much room at my renting apartment could I watch DVD with it so I dun have to buy a TV as I just moved to a new apartment I've been typing with my laptop and my wrist is hurting ... just thinking that it could be good if the unit is not so big and i could suft the internet by touching the screen. As I am aware that the unit is with windows XP and atom N270 which is just great at its price point.
