Not an Apple Mac Mini or Nintendo Wii its the Asus Eee PC Desktop (aka Ebox)
Posted by Daniel in BLOGROLL, MARKETING, MEDIA
This product might be the next big thing from Asus but it has certain design lines from the Nintendo Wii and Apple Mac Mini, although its nothing like the Wii as it wants to handle your desktop computer needs. This is the new Asus Eee PC desktop that could end up competing with the Mac Mini for your desktop computing needs in a small space.
The product has been named the Asus Ebox and we are hearing that this Mac Mini competitor will be on show at the Computex trade show, and that’s not long away as it’s all happening from the 3rd of June in Taiwan. The real question is why would you want an Ebox and not an Apple Mac Mini?
For starters the price of the famous Asus Eee PC laptop is only around $230.00, with that in mind, what could the Ebox sell at? It’s bound to be on the cheap side and if the design does not get you, then the savings in your pocket could end up taking some of Apple’s Mac Mini market share.
With the Credit Crunch in full swing, most peoples spending budgets are getting very tight and cheaper products are needed for both the consumer and the business if they want to keep selling them. Asus knows this and they are planning ahead with computer products that give great value for money.
We are hearing that the new Ebox will be sold as a standalone computer, and to keep costs down it will not include peripherals like a keyboard or monitor. Other features will be a 160GB solid-state drive, so this is confusing, considering they cost a lot of money still. The Ebox should have 2GB of RAM and measure around 8.75×7 inches and about one inch thick. We will update you when get more information.
