AsusTek Computer upended the laptop market when it brought out the tiny, cheap Eee PC a year and a half ago. As a follow-up, the plucky Taiwanese company is trying something harder: conquering the kitchen.
Many manufacturers have tried and failed to create a stripped-down computer that's usable in the home's second-least computer-friendly room (we have yet to see a serious attempt at a bathroom computer).
So how did Asus do? Well, its attempt turns out to be more than half-baked. What it calls the "Eee Top" could be a welcome item for those who spend a lot of time in the kitchen and can stomach paying US$600 for a secondary computer.
But Asus has cut some corners to keep the Top's price low, making me believe waiting a little bit to see what comes next will pay off.
