ASUS EEE PC Defective Screen
Here’s a pic of my temporary Asus Eee PC (*) that I received today and already sent back to NewEgg. It’s incredibly small and I was super-excited about it, but after it got past this original boot screen and I launched Firefox for the first time, it became clear that there was something wrong. At first the fonts looked a little off as if the resolution wasn’t set correctly. I loaded Mahalo and a few other sites to find that the colors were all sort of reversed and shiny. I tried reinstalling the software and resetting the thing to factory settings. Sean Percival played with it a bit and tried tinkering with the BIOS, all to no avail. It was clear it was a faulty LCD, so I sent it back.
Anyone else had problems with defective ASUS Eee PC units?

Haven’t heard of any issues. My buddy got his and hasn’t been seen without it since. It’s small enough and he’s big enough that it fits in his back pocket, he just has to remember not to sit down!
