 Disappointing March 5, 2010

This model was ordered for me as a gift and I was extremely excited to receive. Unfortunately since receiving I have had nothing but problems. On powering up the screen was just black. Eventually sent back to manufacturer and they supposedly fixed the darn thing. I just got back the box (minus the sleeve it initially came with) and it worked for approximately 1.5 days. The screen has just fizzled again. I plan to send this back immediately and request a full refund. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

Great buy for the $. I was afraid it would be junky beacuse it was so inexpensive. I often find, you get what you pay for, but not in this case!!!!!

 I love my Asus but... January 20, 2010
Diamond Star (Boston, MA)
I have this Asus laptop in white with 8.5 hrs of battery life. This is my first laptop and I love its size because I couldn't imagine toting around anything bigger.
It's sleek and stylish and I carry it in a protective padded case in a tote bag. I use it to play my video games, surf the internet or check email at my local Starbucks or wherever free wifi is available. Oh and if you don't have wifi, you will need to have high speed internet. I don't live in an area that has wifi yet. So I usually take my Asus when I need a cup of coffee or tea. Using the flat keyboard took a little getting used to but no big deal.
I have also experienced my Asus getting a little hot but I did see in the manual that you shouldn't have it on your lap when using it.
It's probably a good idea to have a layer of protection on any surface you're using in on at home. I use a bamboo placemat or the protective sleeve/case I purchased when I bought the computer.
Though not a desktop, it's very convenient to be able to use it anywhere in the house or on the road. I recommend upgrading the memory to 2GB, also getting a few flash drives. That way, you don't max out the memory so quickly.
It's wonderful that Asus has made quality laptops that are affordable.
NETbook NOT NOTEbook December 30, 2009

Let's remember that this machine (as are all in the category) is not designed to be a replacement for a full-featured notebook computer. It is better to think of it as a large iPod Touch, Zune, or Archos internet-connected device. In that role, this netbook succeeds completely.
Many people deride the touchpad but I have to say that it's one of the things I like best. So many people don't bother to delve deeper into Control Panel settings or research the functionality instructions of electronics and thus do not enjoy their full benefits. Entering and adjusting the trackpad settings yields a multitude of special functions such as 2-finger scrolling (both vertical and horizontal), image size enlargement and reduction and other terrific navigation shortcuts. It almost makes the trackpad work like a touch-screen iPod.
As far as I'm concerned, the only alteration to the basic hardware configuration needed is to upgrade to the maximum 2GB memory allowed ($35-$40). Doing so definitely improves functionality.
Some also bemoan the lack of Bluetooth but that is easily corrected with a USB dongle for about $5 these days.
External USB, external monitor, headphone and other jacks are wonderful and can be increased with the use of a USB hub. The camera has not, and probably will not be used by me so I cannot comment.
The keyboard has a nice responsive feel and while small, is perfectly usable. Battery life is acceptable based on the designed function of this NETbook. It is more than adequate when used to check e-mail, web-surf or shop and do light work or play. Anything longer than the 3-hour limit can easily be accomplished by plugging it in. However, choosing the same model with a larger 6-cell battery would not be out of line, if desired.
Wireless set-up was easy and flawless and, with the included Windows XP Home, software installation and other familar functions are successful.
Build quality seems very good and I expect this machine to last quite a while with careful use. It's small size and portability doesn't negate the need for care.
I've read some mentions of this unit getting hot during use. I have not experienced this as my unit has only remained reasonabley warm.
If one buys this netbook as a supplement to a desktop or notebook computer he or she will not be disappointed. Trying to make this a replacement for a professional, work-level computer will only lead to frustration.
I highly recommend this netbook as a fun, casual-use adjunct to your electronics arsenal.
