Hello /gSo I have this old eeePC from Asus, bought used already some years ago. Now it does not boot, from nowhere. Used it the day before, then completely dead only monitor backlight and green power led works, anything else not.I'll try to resuscitate it but it is and "everything is soldered" SoC, so I won't get my hopes up.ANYWAY, being it very underpowered it used it for some browsing / video watching, and simple word / excel when away from home. In case it'll be trashed, what are some good but cheap alternatives to it? it is a 11,5" laptop, what are modern replacements? I'd like to stick to windows, too. but whatever. Thanks.
get a used surface pro with at least the 8th genrl processors
I'm posting from the same machine.
>>106456443Interested. I noticed only japanese and chinese companies have small laptops, umpcs, netbooks. A lot are overpriced, or they have bad specs. I am considering getting a secondhand x series thinkpad, maybe an older gen x13.
i had one of these as a kid. i watched so much porn with it. the fact that it dual booted windows and some custom storageless oem linux distro was super neat. i have a similar model sitting around; its battery has been dead for a decade so i never bother with it, but i installed openbsd on to play with. theyre neat machines and infinitely better than chromebooks despite being a decade early for that niche.GPD makes a few models of super small laptops, but theyre very expensive for what they are. the ergonomics makes them unfeasible as primary computers, but theyre very capable machines otherwise. i kinda want to get one to see how well linux supports them but the cheapest models are over $500 usd.
