After much thought on whether to buy a Quad core desktop or a netbook, i prefer to buy the Asus eee first, then later on (maybe next year), my quad core desktop.

Right now, this is what I need (ok enough of the justification). My Toshiba laptop is still enough for my development works.

I bought the one bundled with Windows 7, which was really hard to find since I browsed and called almost all the computer stores I know, and its just only 2 which has this particular bundle. Villman Computers and Octagon (SM Manila). The one bundled with Windows XP has lesser HDD and memory capacity.

Octagon Sm Manila is more accessible from my place so I went there and bought the unit.
