“It’s no secret that Intel and Microsoft have a firm grip on
what a netbook may or may not use in terms of features and parts;
hence the many look-alikes in this pervasive category. But there
are a handful of them that are considered exceptions to the rules
handed down by Wintel. The ASUS EeePC 1101HA ($430 street) is one
of maybe three netbooks that use an 11.6-inch widescreen, while
most others default to a 10-incher. A higher resolution
(1,366-by-768), consequently, is the other deviation. In exchange
for veering from the “guidelines,” however, the 1101HA had to
settle for a slower-than-average Atom processor and a
higher-than-normal netbook price ($429). Still, it ranks right up
there with some of the best oversized netbooks.”
