Here’s another addition to the Asus Eee lineup, the Asus Eee Monitor PC.
As usual, the exact specs haven’t been confirmed yet, but the screen size of the Eee Monitor is expected to be 19 or 20 inches. This size is quite standard for a desktop monitor, providing ample screen real estate for both work and entertainment purposes.
Connectivity and Ports
The Eee Monitor features 2 USB ports and a card reader on the front, making it convenient for users to quickly plug in USB drives or memory cards without having to reach around to the back of the monitor. On the back, there are 4 additional USB ports, two Ethernet ports, and three audio jacks—one for a microphone and two for audio output. This array of ports ensures that users can connect a variety of peripherals, such as external hard drives, printers, and other USB devices, as well as network cables for wired internet connections.
Audio and Additional Features
There are also built-in speakers, and from the looks of the photos, these are Denon. Denon is a well-known brand in the audio industry, suggesting that the Eee Monitor will offer superior sound quality compared to typical built-in monitor speakers. This makes it a great option for multimedia use, such as watching movies, listening to music, or even video conferencing.
Unfortunately, there are no specs on the processor, memory, or hard drive as yet, but it is expected to run Intel’s Atom processor. The Intel Atom processor is known for its energy efficiency and adequate performance for basic computing tasks, such as web browsing, document editing, and media playback. This makes the Eee Monitor a suitable choice for home offices, students, or anyone needing a reliable secondary computer.
The Asus Eee Monitor will come in a choice of black or white and is expected to retail for around $500. This price point makes it an affordable option for those looking to upgrade their desktop setup without breaking the bank. Additionally, it may even feature a built-in TV tuner, which would allow users to watch television directly on their monitor, further enhancing its versatility.
