Asus did what it does best, create a new niche segment in the PC industry. Today was the launch of their latest creation, the Eee Top, a desktop replacement of sorts specifically aimed at beginners (or elderly people), kids or for someone who wants a small and stylish desktop without the hassle of many wires.

The event was quite a fancy one in typical Asus fashion, just without the models on the ramp (which was a bummer). 
The Eee Top is a full touch screen PC with similar specifications of the Eee Box with a Intel N270 processors running at 1.6GHz, Intel's 945 chipset, 1GB of RAM and 160GB SATA hard disk. Windows XP is part of the bundle along with WiFi 802.11n and two 4W speakers and a keyboard and mouse.

The screen is very responsive thanks to the resistive touch panel and just a light tap is enough to activate the function. You can't right click though with your fingers and you'll have to use the keyboard or mouse for that. They have even designed a unique interface with large, colorful icons which makes it very easy for first time users or even little kids to navigate around.
Since this is also a entertainment PC, Asus has bundled along many fun applications and games which make use of the touch interface and is quite entertaining. 

We should have a review piece in a couple of days, so stay tuned for our full review.
