Asus’s Eee PC is clearly making a big splash, and now that units are starting to arrive in homes everywhere the inevitable unboxing photos are starting to arrive. We’ve already seen the guts of this little lappie, so now it’s time to see some lucky punter open their own unit and splay the battery, mini-charger, and driver disks. Nothing particularly surprising here, but if you’re waiting for your own unit to arrive or for stock to replenish, we know you won’t be able to get enough of these pics.

Astronaut Scott Parazynski pulled the short straw (probably on purpose: you know what these astronaut types are like) and had the task of repairing the ripped solar array on the International Space Station. Mission complete, as Parazynski managed to move the guide wires that caused the damage out of the way and “stitched” together the two and half feet rip, the whole time managing to avoid touching the panels and their 100 volt charge. It’s the furthest any astronaut on the ISS had been outside the cabin, and as such it took an hour to get there on a 90 foot robot arm. What would we do without duct tape?
