Here's the breakdown...

My take...

For the design I'll go with Classmate...

For the price I'll go with Asus...

This is not official but I heard that ASUS is selling for P17K while P19k for Classmate PC...

Technical Specs are almost the same but Classmate has a pre installed MS Office while Asus has Open Office... 

I watched TV Patrol last night and TJ Manotoc reported that Classmate PC has a 30gig HDD for the Second Generation released last April 3...Pretty cool...

So there, maybe you want a new tiny pc to play with, check these two charmers out....

take care, cheers to the good life!!!
