Asus Eee PC - Image 1Here's something that you're going scream "Eeeeeee!" over (sorry, couldn't resist): Asus Eee PCs powered with Windows XP are now spotted at Best Buy's online store, and the best part? It has the same price as its Linux-flavored counterpart, which has a pricetag of a mere US$ 399.

Surprised? You can bet that we are too. Since the Asus Eees are built with being economical in mind, consumers can't expect groundbreaking features from these babies. But nevertheless, these notebook PCs are small and sleek, nice enough to lug around and take notes with.

Here's its basic features: it comes in a shiny black case, with a 7-inch display with 800 x 480 resolution. As for its innards, the diminutive notebook has a 4GB shock-proof flash hard drive, and has a built-in web cam and microphone for your basic chat and video conferencing needs.

Granted, it's not the most powerful notebook out there, but now that it's powered by Windows, you can bet that it won't fail to serve its purpose: computing on the go.
