We've had most of the details on ASUS' Eee Box for a while now, but we've finally got our hands on the last piece of the puzzle; pricing.
The system, officially titled the ASUS Eee Box B202, will reach the UK in August with a very appealing price-tag of £199. It'll be available in black or white models, and will come bundled with a keyboard and mouse.
The compact machine measures just 22.2cm x 17.8cm x 2.7cm and features Intel's 1.6GHz Atom N270 processor. There's 1GiB of DDR 2 memory, an 80GiB HDD, 802.11n Wi-Fi, Gigabit Ethernet and a five-in-one memory card reader. Reports vary when it comes to connectivity, but the Eee Box is believed too offer two to three USB 2.0 slots and DVI out.
The real party piece, however, is its ability to mount VESA displays. ASUS states that the Eee Box "mounts VESA LCD displays for the ultimate space-saving solution". Though we're uncertain if that's as standard or via an optional component, it'll mean your Eee Box can be mounted to the rear of VESA-compatible displays. How's that for a tidy solution to go with your TV screen?
It'll ship with Windows XP as standard, but a Linux version will be offered at a later date. ASUS will no doubt be offering multiple configurations, but with a starting price of £199, this one has mass appeal.
