So with the release of Windows 7 just around the corner, netbook manufacturers are taking advantage of introducing machines that utilize Intel Atom processors together with Nvidia Ion chipsets. Together, these chipset technologies would be able to provide end-users with a high-quality, low-power Windows 7 experience.
Let's look at ASUS. The company has just introduced the EeeTop ET2002T, a 20″ touchscreen nettop with 1600×900 resolution. Initially showcased at Computex 2009, this machine is powered by a dual-core 1.6GHz Intel Atom 330 CPU and has 2 GB of RAM and a 250 GB (5400RPM) hard drive.
Other tech specs of this machine include Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi (b/g/n), a card reader, four USB 2.0 ports, and an HDMI connector.
Since the Nvidia Ion chipset will be part of this nettop package, the system may be shipped with a choice of Windows Vista as the OS. There may also be the chance to upgrade this OS to Windows 7 when it is released.
ASUS will be offering the nettop as a bundle that includes a wireless keyboard and mouse. The price tag for this nettop bundle, you ask? €598, or $845.
