Can you break an ASUS EeePC? Just how robust are they? The video below shows an ASUS EeePC dropped (twice) then picked apart to see what's inside.

Brian Gammage, who follows the PC market for Gartner, said sales of ultra-lightweight but highly specified laptops outstripped even their most optimistic projections. "There's something real happening here, and you need to get to grips with it," he told CIOs at the Gartner symposium in Cannes this week.

To show just how robust the Asus is, he gave it drop test. Twice. See the results here.
