Hi folks,
For the OzBargain community, we have the Asus EEE PC R101 Netbook for $299 including delivery, or you can pick up in-store until the 19th December. Just put the promo code "ozbargain" at checkout for the free shipping to apply. You can also choose to add insurance on the postage if you wish (at a small extra charge).
Basic Specs:
Windows 7 Starter, N450 (1.66ghz), 10.1 Inch Screen, 160GB HDD, 1GB Ram
Wifi G, 0.3MP Webcam, Card Reader, up to 9 Hours Battery Life.
Only at officeworks it's dearer…
So presumably Office Works would beat this price by 5%?
Yep, got one last week for $284
Price matched the lapyking deal: http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/35995
Great work, OW Coburg matched for me, legend!
What do you think compared to this? http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/35685 Is $50 extra worth it for 6 cell battery on the Asus?
^ Only you can answer that. What sort of battery life will you need? If you think you will need the extra hours then I would say it's worth it. It's over $100 to buy the 6 cell battery on it's own.
I priced the 6-cell for the EM350 at about $45 (numerous vendors on eBay) - it uses the Acer One 532h battery pack.
Or.. for a little over twice the price, you can buy a real laptop.
With a 9 hour battery, my good sir? I'd like to see the weight and size of such a laptop.
love the description -"Seemingly crafted by nature itself, the Eee PC™ Seashell draws its inspiration from seashells"
yes, a computer seemingly crafted by nature.
Promo Price $329.00? Am I missing something here?
Indeed you are sir. Put the promocode of "ozbargain" in the field in the checkout and it will update your price to $299.
Good price. MWAVE also have this for $299 at there saturday 17th december super showroom sale.
For some reason OW have these marked as "only at officeworks" on their latest catalogue… Maybe they mean: "pay $398 at OW, $299 Everywhere else!"
