Asus S101 Ulitmate Eee PC could rival Macbook Air

We have known for some time that Asus are to launch the ultimate Eee PC called the S101. It seems that Asus do not want this Ultimate laptop top be associated with their Eee PC notebooks.

The boss of Asus thinks that the S101 might just be a rival to Apple’s Macbook Air. When he showed of the new notebook, he re-enacted the Apple Macbook Air launch by pulling the Macbook Air from an envelope to show off how thin it is.

There will be two models in the Asus S101 range, one will have a 32GB SSD and will cost $699 and the 64GB SSD version will cost $899.

Both have a 10.2-inch LCD screen with LED backlit. Both notebooks are powered by Intel’s Atom processor.

Asus will have a hard time trying to shake of the Eee PC name from the S101 range. As for the whole rival thing for the Macbook Air, well I will let you be the judge of that.
