  • Sharebar

The Eee PC MK90, more popularly known as Disney netbook or Netpal is now available for preorder at Toys R’ US. Here are its specifications at a glance:

  • 8.9-inch screen
  • Intel Atom N270 CPU
  • 1GB RAM
  • 16GB SSD
  • WiFi
  • 3 USB ports
  • 0.3 MP webcam

The Eee PC MK90 Netpal will be available for $349.99 and shipping will start on August 3. ASUS will include a ‘kid-friendly’ interface on top of Windows-XP including some themes built around Mickey Mouse, Cars, Toy Story, Wall-E etc. Also, since it is meant for small children and they will be stepping into the big-bad world of Internet, parental controls are very much needed in order to stop your child from viewing “you-know-what”. In addition to that, the kids can only correspond via email to those people which are approved by the parents.

For storage, you have two options. Either you can go in for the 16GB SSD or 160GB HDD. Going for 16GB SSD would be better option as the kids may not put the unit into standby (or put in into hibernation) before moving it around.
