How many port does that thing have? BTW I did a quick look up. You have 2-4gb flash memory space on that. I had a real laptop in 1999 that had a 2.5gb hard drive so one can certainly deal with that capacity. Even more so if you have USB port to plug in an external hard drive. Especially one with a laptop hard drive in the enclosure
Who needs ports, especially the USB variety? The Mac Air was designed to use wireless connections.
The biggest drawback, as far as I am concerned, with the the ASUS eeePC is the teeny tiny keyboard. But with flash drives and SD cards, capacity is no problem.
