Design
The Asus Ee PC ha in 1005 following the company's new "Design Shell", which they say is inspired by mussels. In the closed state, the system searches for the greatest the rear than the front, with its thickest point measuring at 1.4 inches. The hinges are designed so that the screen behind the keyboard, which slides we feel all a bit smaller. The build quality is pretty solid for a budget netbook, and no or very little, Flex, Flex plastic used to make the device.
Display
The screen is 10.1 inches Screen type Bright LED-backlit LCD panel with resolution 1024 x 600 native. Color and contrast are rich and vibrant glossy display but has the disadvantage of glare under strong light or sunlight. The vertical viewing angle with minimal distortion of color and the average horizontal visual angle was also good with the colors remain accurate even at moderately large angles.
CPU, RAM and hard disk
It uses Intel Atom N280 1.66 GHz (667 MHz FSB) processor with 1 GB of DDR2 SDRAM (667 MHz). The N280 processor is slightly faster than N270 CPU, which is commonly used in many other netbooks available. While not exactly a speed demon, it is enough for normal. Computing tasks like surfing the Internet, watching movies or working with some office software, and such a time. There is also an option to activate. A clock or underclock the processor, you can use to run faster or use less energy. The 160 GB 5400 rpm SATA hard drive is fast enough for normal use.

Also it should be noted that this netbook is not for watching videos in 1080p screen 1024X600.
Keyboard and touchpad
The keyboard extends from one end to another to make good use of limited space available. While size is not a full size keyboard, It offers a large keys, which are more comfortable with the design. Both shift keys are large enough to impress me, but he put the key in less interesting. The touchpad is average.
Ports
On the front and back, there are no ports. On the left side, there is power jack, VGA, USB 2.0, crack security lock, and a heat vent. On the right side there is a 4-in-1 card reader, a headphone jack, microphone input, two USB 2.0 ports and an Ethernet. The complete list of ports is very satisfactory for a Netbook.
Sound
The enclosure is built better than the normal speakers netbook. It can produce good volume levels without much distortion. The high range and average speed sound was good, but it lacked bass. The headphone jack was released from the distortion and offers a better solution for music lovers.

Although this sounds crazy, but it is true that the 1005 ha can provide up to eight hours in duration normal use in sleep mode, with its battery of six cells.
