Look Who’s Talking: ASUS, the Designer Brand

Look Who’s Talking: ASUS, the Designer Brand

By Zoli Erdos on January 5, 2010

Brand vs. Quality. Which Would You Pay For? – I asked recently, making the case that “trusted old brands” like HP are producing inferior quality, while formerly “no-name cheapo” component maker ASUS is becoming a household name.  They are basically doing what Honda, Toyota (and now the Koreans)  did to the car business. Sure, ASUS […]

Brand vs. Quality. Which Would You Pay For?

By Zoli Erdos on December 7, 2009

Time to re-evaluate just what we consider “good brands” vs. junk.  I could not resist the summer back-to-school discounts and upgraded two laptops – one of them is already making funny noises. Tired already?   It’s an HP.  Perhaps just a co-incidence –  but my desktop monster, just two years old has long been pretending it […]

What the Next Generation Acer Aspire One Netbook Still Lacks

What the Next Generation Acer Aspire One Netbook Still Lacks

… is a screen appropriate for working on the Net (which is what Netbooks are supposedly for). Most websites today are designed at a resolution of 1024×768, and guess what: there’s not one single (good) Netbook on the market today that that can display that.   All of the current crop, including the new 10.1” Acer […]

Should You Redesign Your Website to 800x600 – Or Wait For Netbook Makers to Wake Up and Give Us Decent Screens?

Should You Redesign Your Website to 800×600 – Or Wait For Netbook Makers to Wake Up and Give Us Decent Screens?

Oh, size issues again… Size Matters – said yours truly back in April, before returning the very first eee PC after only a day: I could get used to the screen size, my fingers would learn to deal with the keyboard, but it’s impossible to browse the Net with this thing.  The problem is that […]

Netbook or Notebook? It’s Not Only About Size.

Netbook or Notebook? It’s Not Only About Size.

By Zoli Erdos on October 31, 2008

The One Thing the ASUS CEO did Not Get Right | $279 Acer Aspire One?

By Zoli Erdos on October 21, 2008

Image by geognerd via Flickr Asus created the Netbook craze with the first eee Pc (the one I owned for a day) released last year, and it has become a huge market – in fact the most dynamic segment in PC sales.  Laptop Magazine published an interview with ASUS CEO Jerry Shen.  Key factoids: Four […]
