The Asus Eee PC 4G-XU Notebook, one of the most successful sub notebook computers designed by Asus, and probably the one that started the hype for subnotebook computers now comes in 3 different colors. For those users always on the lookout for new styles, new skins, this is going to be great news. As seen in the picture, the ASUS Eee PC 4G-XU will now come in colors of pastel blue, pastel green and pastel pink. Really, I'm not into colorful gadgets, I'm more of a black/white/gray sleek-device type of guy, so I leave it up to those who like it to decide.

Toshiba America recently added Pro U400 Laptop to its Satellite Pro® family. Equipping 13.3-inch diagonal widescreen TruBrite display, the U400 is very handy while traveling. Take the benefit of Intel 802.11 a/b/g wireless, Bluetooth® v2.1, and a 1.3 megapixel Webcam with built-in microphone. What else?

Asus have created the Eee PC, a laptop designed to be highly portable, useful and cheap. Although I'd see the Eee as backup to any real computer or notebook I'd own, I have to admit it's a very interesting and challenging concept.

After the 7 inch version they have released the Eee PC 900 and it's rumored they are getting ready to launch an 11 inch version of this bestseller laptop by the end of this year. We don't have any details but I am certain they will have tp add extra features to make it a decent competitor of laptops like the Lenovo IdeaPad U110 I showed you before.

I am also interested in what the new Eee will go for. Instead of the 9 inch you'd be better off with any 15 inch laptop for the same price. The 11 inch Eee PC will be even higher priced I am sure, and I predict you could be way better off with a 15 inch Asus laptop instead. Let's see what tomorrow brings.

I wonder how the announced Eee TV (E-TV), Eee desktop (E-DT), and Eee monitor are going to be like and if Eee will become a stronger and more envied brand.

I am on an environmental writing spree today and after telling you all about the new Credo accessories I simply have to show you what Dell has in store for its buyers. The picture above is the eco-friendly PC which is said to be 70% less energy consumer and 81% smaller than a mini tower Dell PC (but bigger than the Asus EEE). Michael Dell says about it: "These are important issues. When you think about our industry, we produce 260 million computers a year. There's a responsibility that comes with that."

It's only logical for Dell to invest more and more in electronics, specifically in laptops and desktops, meant to reduce overall energy consumption. Further more whether you own one of their products or not, you can be part of this ecological movement by joining one of their programs: "Plant a Tree for Me" (for private buyers) or "Plant a Forest for Me," (for companies).
