"*" is "0 or more" and "+" is "1 or more", it looks for any number of "e" or "i" at the beginning and at least one capital letter. The diagram below the regex is wrong.

Instead of

  [ie]*-?[A-Z]+
it looks like they wanted

  [ie]?-?[A-Z]

There was a product called the eeePC or so. It was a "netbook."
The Asus product line, yes (all three Es apparently stand for "easy"). But Asus write it with a capital E on the front. Still, somebody else might not.
