The Asus Eee PC 1201T is the first member of the Eee PC notebook family to feature an AMD processor. And now that it’s shipping in the US, it looks like it’s also the cheapest 12 inch notebook from Asus. Newegg is selling it for just $389.99 — although that’s partially due to the fact that this laptop ships without Windows.
Here’s what you get for that price:
- CPU: 1.6GHz AMD Athlon Neo MV-40
- Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 3200
- Display: 12.1 inch, 1366 x 768 pixel
- OS: Express Gate quick start (bring your own desktop OS)
- Memory: 2GB
- Storage: 160GB hard drive
- Connectivity: 802.11b/g/n WiFi, Ethernet
- I/O: 3 USB ports, VGA, mic, headphone, SDHC card slot, 0.3MP Webcam
- Battery: 6 cell
- Dimensions: 11.7″ x 8.2″ x 1.3″
- Weight: 3.2 pounds
This looks like a pretty good deal if you happen to have a Windows installation disc handy or if you plan to install Linux or another operating system. For more information on the Eee PC 1201T, you might want to check out a recent review from Yugatech.
