So I finally gave up on waiting for the Eee PC to come out, and tried bargain hunting on Ebay. Well, I caught this guy in the last minute going for like 150 bucks.

Good deal? Now that I paid 180 for it, they're telling me they'll sell me 2 more of the same for 250 shipping included. I wondering if I should just pick them up so I can sell them on ebay. :P

No, I wouldn't do it. 180 bucks is a decent deal for that computer, but all you'll really be able to do with it is play really old games, listen to music, and browse the internet with it. The specs kind of suck, and its quite old. I'm sure that its still a decent computer, its just really outdated.

Exactly what Tony said. You're better off saving your money for something nice.
