So, can a $299 mini desktop really find a place in your jaded heart? Based on a recent review by HotHardware, the answer is a resounding “yes.” In terms of general performance, the box delivered more potency than critics expected, and the hardware within was able to provide a “a fluid experience in all but the full 1080p digital video playback test.” Of note, it didn’t have any trouble churning through a 720p clip, so there’s still hope for folks obsessed with flipping through HD trailers for hours on end. Furthermore, the unit was found to be remarkably energy efficient, with only “a slightly heavier draw than an Eee PC 900.” Of course, we wouldn’t expect this to replace your Alienware or anything, but for the most average of tasks, the B202 should be adequate enough. Hit the read link for the full rundown.

In typical ASUS style, it utterly failed in dishing out a nice gallery of press shots to go along with the official unveiling of the Atom-powered Eee Box. Nevertheless, those photographs you’ve been hankering for have finally appeared, with luscious high-resolution angles of the white, black and “red” Eee Box. For the whole gallery along with a few informational pages on how this miniature PC is guaranteed to revolutionize the way you compute, give the read link down there a little love.

[Thanks, Sascha]
