In future, could you link the alternative product in question? I understand that it sounds incredibly lazy but I tend to scan many threads at a time and going on a google-hunt for something you wish to discuss makes my panda cry.

Not to mention that finding obscure taiwanese/chinese products can actually be mildly non-trivial at times.

I would never consider Asus EEE obscure, are they not popular in the US? I remember seeing them a lot while traveling and weren't they the ones who started the whole netbook craze? They are the first thing that comes to mind when someone mentions a netbook.

>I would never consider Asus EEE obscure

I'd never heard of a multi-touch model before.

This is utterly beside the point. I just want the title of the post to link to the subject under discussion.

I don't want meta-discussion hand-wringing.

Just a link. This is YCNews, not the US Senate.
