Does it lives to its hype? Read the review to find out.

Just like the other EEE PCs, the RAM upgrade is easy as pie. Although, I should make it clear that there is no user-friendly way of upgrading the SSD.

Anyway, here are the steps on how to upgrade the RAM

2. Unscrew the two screws using Phillips screw driver. You will find the RAM to the left. Gently push the holders in opposite directions and pull the RAM out.
