The processor running in this particular Eee 1005HA is the slightly older Intel Atom N270 that was super-ceded about a month ago by the Intel Atom N450 processor, but for doing web browsing and checking emails and such the N270 works very well.

A user has managed to get Google Chrome OS running on his ASUS Eee T91 MT netbook tablet. We assume he has used the USB install option to get it running.

The video below is fairly self explanatory. You can see various websites being loaded on the OS along with the touchscreen features being utilised. There is one thing to point out though in that the calibration is obviously not set right, but does work to a certain extent. [Read more…]

ASUS will soon begin to offer Ubuntu as a choice for operating systems on its range of Netbooks. Ubuntu is Linux based and comes with a number of applications that let you use the netbook as you would a PC (in some ways).
