Looks a lot like the original EeePC. I used one for a couple of years but there was no doubt it was cramped. I still have it and it works. My N900 was fun but didn’t last quite as long before a bit of flex killed the wireless radios. I replaced it with an iPhone 4S and haven’t looked back: I still use open source software every day but running on, or accessed by, (excellent) Apple hardware (the M1 MacBook Air and iPhone 13 mini are the best computers I’ve ever had).


I also have Eee netbook. It's so old that it's keyboard stopped working. I bought another keyboard from the same model but changing it didn't help. What do you mean with "flex killed"? Could the same happen to keyboard controller on my piece? Is it possible to fix it with simple soldering new solder?

Also I would like to buy this OP mini laptop for my six year daughter... I wonder when it will be ready for production... She might be 8 then. Maybe better Raspberry Pi 400 (but it needs external screen and that is a downturn)? What do you think?
