Eee PC (701SD)

Craptastic integrated graphics

They arent that horrid. They are held up by the celeron, which rocks. You can probably play HL2, if you overclock, upgrade the ram, and do some very serious system stripping. I tried it once awhile back. It was close to playable. I was running 512 of ram with eeebuntu and wine on the factory clock. (Hl2 demo)

With an overclock (the EEE does it really well, but you gotta do a little to the cooling system. Add a thin sheet of copper between the chips and the keyboard, along with some good thermal paste and it helps a ton.) to like 1.2ghz and a gb of ddr2 800 you should be able to play it playably.

My dad tried putting Windows on it and gave up because it was so slow. It laaags just browsing the web. Sometimes so bad I thought it crashed. Are you sure we're talking about the same Eee here?

Mines a 701 too. I question your fathers ability to windows. Mine had XP when I got it, and it ran just fine.

I also have a HP Pavilion DV5000 as my HTPC. VGA cable to HD TV with Netflix.

Works pretty good.

The SSD in the EEE series, while not exactly blazingly fast, is every bit as quick as a 7200 rpm HDD.The reason it lagged is because the system wasnt designed to run anything even close to that. But it can. Thats the beauty of it.

Anywhoodle, nabbed a new laptop the other day:

Thinkpad T40
openBSD
1.6GHz Intel Pentium M
512MB DDR SDRAM 266MHz
ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 32MB
80gb 5400rpm drive

Got it free on account of a dead hard drive. Slapped one I had in, installed BSD; good as new.
