Absorption by the 770.41, 780.32 {\\AA} doublet of NeVIII in quasar spectra represents a unique tool to study this elusive warm-hot phase. We have developed an analytic model for the properties of NeVIII absorbers that allows for an inhomogeneous metal distribution. Our model agrees with the predictions of a simulation from the OWLS project indicating that the average line-of-sight metal-filling fraction within the absorbing gas is low (c_L~0.1).
