We finally review the EeePC 1005HA which it's the sweet spot in terms of price vs performance. This one also belongs to the Seashell series of netbooks but was launched after the 1101HA and the 1008HA. The 1005HA provides you the best of both worlds as it has the brute force of the N270 Atom and the long battery life of the 1101HA, which is around 10hrs, as Asus claims.





The styling and build of the netbook is somewhat similar to the 1008HA with the exception of a removable battery in this one. The build and styling is good as always although I don't approve of the full gloss work on the body which easily gets really messy and spoils the whole show of the netbook. I don't think I need to re-iterate the specifications as they are pretty much standard now so let's get on with the tour of the netbook.

Bundle

The bundle includes the following accessories:

  • Charger
  • Carry Pouch
  • Backup CD
  • Driver CD
  • Instruction Manual

Are you effin kidding me? These netbooks are really under powered. To call them beasts with BRUTE FORCE is RIDICULOUS. The author needs to do some reality checks.
