| Here you see the high-end of the line, the SDXI 2 or 3, the final name is up
| in the air. There is an air cooled one in back, and a liquid cooled monster
| in front. Both have a very nice flame finish, and the liquid cooled box has a
| hump on top to vent the heat.

Review: Eee laptop PC shreds the rules
,----[ Quote ]
| Unencumbered by Windows, the Eee boots up so quickly I didn't bother counting
| the seconds. Its Wi-Fi chip links with the Web in a flash, and its webcam — a
| feature missing from many laptops triple the price — turns it into a video
| messaging device with the help of eBay Inc.'s Skype, which comes pre-loaded.
| There are USB ports for peripherals, a port to connect to a monitor, and —
| most essential — a flash memory slot to expand its meager storage. Battery
| life is advertised at 3.5 hours.
