ASUS Eee PC Flare 1025C/CE Netbooks

ASUS has announced a number of new netbooks this year at CES and we’re delighted to be among the first to give you the product tour. There are four new models that should cover the needs of just about anyone needing a small, light, yet powerful computer for tasks that tablets just can’t hack. There are AMD and Intel machines to choose from in a variety of colors. We haven’t gotten our hands on them just yet but we did get the specifications and a number of images to share.
