"Would like it if the keyboard wasn't so crazy!" 2009-04-15By
Mary Costa (Brentwood, CA United States)
I have really tried liking this computer, it's tiny, it can go anywhere, overall things work well...EXCEPT...the keyboard is absolutely CRAZY.
I need to be able to type....alot, but this computer invariably and suddenly jumps several lines up and inserts what you are typing in the wrong place. I spend more time fixing what went chaotically wrong. For the longest time I assumed it was me, and now after very careful observations, it is definitely this computer. Ironically as I type this comment, it hasn't happened once. It typically happens about every 3rd sentence, way too much!!!!
Again, I really want to LOVE this computer, if only it wasn't so crazy!
On a positive note, the battery lasts a long time.
"Absolutely Great product" 2009-03-26By
T. S. Borek (USA)
I travel a lot and needed a reliable computer to keep connected
to the web. The ASUS Eee PC is much more. Came in two days,
no problems getting it ready & going and it works marvelously.
Love this machine - best thing I have purchased in a long time !

"Petite Computer" 2009-03-21By
C. B. Rogers (Tennessee)
One of the best purchases I've made. Only complaint is the "Enter" key on the right side of the keyboard is too small and in the wrong place for me.
"Everything excellent, minor flaw in kwyboard layout" 2009-03-20By
Umang Saini (Bangalore, India)
ASUS did a great job in packaging this monster at this price. It's a steal and performance is crisp for browsing, chat and quick media doses.
The only flaw i found was one horrible mistake in keyboard layout. This however was promptly corrected in a newer revision. So PLEASE buy the newer, better revision. This is quite a neat package.
"Excellent Netbook" 2009-03-11By
Thomas CarridoI was reviewing all the netbooks and this one had all the features I wanted specially the Bluetooth and wireless N. I'm planning to use this for travel because my laptops gets heavy after lugging it all day. I upgraded the memory to 2gb, the HDD to 500gb and bought an external DVD reader/writer. I also put Vista Ultimate in it. The speaker is loud and clear.. louder than my laptops! The screen is gorgeous with the LED backlighting.. the images are bright and crisp. Battery life is 4 hours or more on balanced power setting with internet using mid brightness. For Power Saving mode it lasts at least 5 hours. The only downside is the shift key on the right side but once you get used to it it's fine.
