Otto’s take on the Eee

February 6th, 2008 | by rey |

Here’s what Microsoft’s Otto Berke, father of the MS Origami project and architect of the UMPC, has to say about the Asus Eee:

“The Eee adheres to some of the core tenets of the ultra-mobile PC – a low-cost, highly mobile, full-fidelity companion computer. In fact, the Eee PC hits one of the key UMPC targets dead on; there’s one place where all of the other UMPC products missed – price. People expect mobile devices to be affordable!”
