Asus EEE Top RAM Upgrade

April 7th, 2009

A couple of months ago i bought the Asus EEE Top all-in-one touch based computer. As most other Atom based nettops it came with only 1Gb of internal memory, so I decided to give the RAM upgrade a go.

To open up the back cover you need to remove a total of 4 screws in addition to the 4 in the desk stand. The four screws around the edges are covered with silicone or rubber that are about 1cm deep. Just use a sharp knife or something similar to lift them up.

In hope (but not much) of a mini pci-e inside the modem, we opened one we had laying around. As you can see, there is not! :)

Acer Aspire One D250 unboxing

April 5th, 2009

This is the unboxing of the Acer Aspire One D250. The D250 is the new netbook from Acer with a 10.1 inch backlit led display. As you can see in the video, it is easy to upgrade ram, harddrive and add a mini-pci card.
There is a SIM-card slot behind the battery, but we could not confirm if it’s actally a sim reader installed.

First impression is that this is a sleek and good looking netbook.

Other specs:

Intel Atom N280 CPU
10.1 inch led backlit display (1024×600)
1 gb ram ( 2gb max)
160 gb harddrive
b/g wireless
0.3 mp webcam
Bluetooth
6-cell 4400 mah battery
Win Xp Home
Multitouch mousepad

It’s in norwegian, but drop a comment if you have questions.
