Operational Built-in Application Program
At the Asus Eee Personal Computer you'll be able to instal Windows XP along the device whenever you decide, but only business travellers might need it. On application program* like Mozilla Firefox as Web browsing, Thunderbird as netmail, OpenOffice.org as word processing, and spreadsheet requires, you will be able to seamlessly go along being fertile.
The tabbed desktop screen is cleared, decorated through large icons that clearly state their determination. At the top of the user interface are six tab key*, to each one controlling a clustering of apps that represent a specified action: Internet, Work, Learn, Play, Settings, and Favourites. The last mentioned in reality allows you decide which app icons should come out on the screen accessible whenever you recognize precisely what you wish, you bet you prefer to access it.
The icons represent both built-in apps and shortcuts to Web-based applications, and they cover a wide degree of functionality. Among those provided are Xandros Antivirus (set to automatically update virus definitions), iGoogle and Google Docs, and Wikipedia shortcuts, Skype and Pidgin (instant messaging) clients, an eBook reader, Internet Radio, Web Mail shortcuts (for Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, and AOL), and Adobe Acrobat Reader.
In my experience, uprooting files from my Windows desktop to the Eee PC got going smoothly. When I connected a USB flash drive or a Secure Digital card, up popped up a window requiring which program I needed to open the device with File Manager (remindful Windows Explorer), Music Manager, or Image Manager.
I had no problems affording PDF data file*; ditto mark for high-resolution JPEG pics, MP3 files, and for .AVI, .MOV, and .WMV video recording files. Occasionally data file* took a long time to access, though: e.g., a three-page Word document took a few moments to open in OpenOffice.org. I could even multitask: the Asus operating system allows multiple opened application program windows, and then I gave notice OpenOffice when listening to an MP3 playlist.
The Music managing director is unrefined and no iTunes in conditions of it has simplicity of use; even so, the user interface is reasonably direct and something even newbies can figure out. You've a modicum of command for illustration, you'll be able to exchange balance presets (yea, doing so assists at the baseline, music sounded even more tinny and flat through the built-in stereo speakers) or create your own equalizer setting. And you can build playlists.
The unit's KDE Image Manager is likewise unrefined, on the window dissevered into three sections (as with the Music Manager, this organization is by default, you'll be able to closing or customise it whenever you decide). My pictures looked fair to middling on-screen and spread out speedily (including high-resolution 13-megapixel images). Right-clicking on an open image proceedses a diversity of catching options, including slideshow mode and bonus points here the ability to view the image full screen (fantastic for picture taking enthusiasts who want to get in close and cross whether a picture is blurred).
Since the Eee PC is Asus' answer to the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) opening, the companion targets scholars with the educational activity bewared apps under its Learn tab. These apps let in a periodic table, KStars' Planetarium for burgeoning astronomers, letter games, a typing support, and mathematics tutorials. The Eee PC also has a fistful of games for whole ages, such as Sudoku, Solitaire, and a variant on Tetris.
