Submission + - Asus and Intel challenge OLPC with Eee PC (zdnet.com)
fl!ptop writes: "George Ou at ZDNet says, "The user interface of the OLPC doesn't even feel worth of a cheap fisher price toy" but raves about a new Asus/Intel super cheap UMPC. "The ASUS Eee computer will cost a mere $199 for the 7" LCD model whereas the so-called $100 OLPC costs $175. Given the fact that Eee can run Linux or Windows XP and it can boot off NAND flash memory in a mere 15 seconds, the Eee slaughters the OLPC with ease." C|Net has some more information on the Eee PC when it was introduced at Computex last month in Taiwan."
