First Shots of Black Eee PC 900 in the Wild
Posted by Matt Buchanan at 1:57 PM on April 30, 2008
The chowed down fish crowding the shot almost gives a new meaning to "in the wild" pics, but I digress. Until now we've only seen the bigger, badder Eee PC 900 in that single shade of paleness (unlike its little bro), but this shot seems to confirm that a veritable rainbow (or um, a pair) of colour options is shortly on the way. So what'll it be folks, black or white? More shots at the link, if you need help making up your mind. And yes, the fish is in all of 'em. [Flicka via EeeUser]

There's got to be a meme in here somewhere.

It's a sizemodo. That's a sardine.

So is the half eaten, white eyeballed fish is somehow supposed to make this more appealing?

@Azndude51: I agree about a certain lack of charm with the dishes. About as appealing as revealing the TH!NK car beside a plate of Lutefisk.

Black for sure.
Lets see, $600 economic stimulus check in May, $500-600 Eee PC 900 in May... perfect.

It's awesome, and I want it sooo badly... but my wife'll drop a load if I buy one at $550.00, given that I've got a ultralight Lenovo X61 already. The nice thing about previous Eee PC's is that their $350.00 price tag made them an "It's OK, honey, this thing was soooo cheap" item. Can't really get away with that tactic with this thing. Sigh....

I didn't just buy another ultraportable, but my wife would kill me nonetheless!

@SpyderMS: You just have to pick the right ball and chain. So far this year I have purchased a Shuttle PC, a fully loaded Dell M1330 (with 4GB, EVDO and 64GB SSD) and a D3 with two lenses. She didn't even blink.

Looks fishy to me.
Aha. Aha. Aha.
*cough*
Yeah, looks nice but could do with being less than £300.

@SpyderMS: ...now you tell me!
I just buy them, and when she asks,I say it's old, and she hasn't seen it before.
"...oh, I've had this for ages, honey! You remember? ...oh, well, I've just kept it in this box for a long time."
That usually doesn't work, BTW.
*sad*

Meh, just buy her a more expensive pair of shoes at the same time: no casualties!

Now that looks like a mini-PC. I vote for black.
