I will eventually have to load windows xp because it is difficult to add other software programs to this linux os system or sometimes to even view certain graphics online that require a download or plugin. I am still getting use to the small keyboard but other than that I love it. The software package that come with it are equivalent to what you would use from Microsoft. For me it did not last more than 30 minutes so I would suggest you take the power cord with you and look for an outlet wherever you go. It is so small and portable I can take it anywhere. There is a problem with the battery life though. I am enjoying my Asus EEE pc.
The ASUS is what I got and it does what I want it to do. You can get them at almost any department store or electronics store. I am very pleased with my purchase. I bought this computer because it's cheap, small and light.
I needed something portable to write class papers on. They are cheap, will save your memory and make transferring files easy. Amazon has very good prices on SD cards too. Accessory Recommendation: I recommend buying an SD card to store your files on.
Will be shipping it back and either waiting or going with something that doesn't have these bugs. I'm pretty sure mine is going back. I don't have time for this type of stress. I've been under the dreadful "pending status" now all but a few seconds.
So if you want a second computer to just have available whenever, its a good solution.
It does get a little warm and the keyboard is small but I don't touch type very fast anyway so no problem.
I bought this little thing because I was headed to Europe for a little vacation and I had just enrolled in an online course.
I attached a mini USB mouse and that really helps as the touch pad is small too (although big enough, really).
I even watched a movie I had loaded on my USB thumb drive and it was great.
I wanted light weight and small and at just about 2lbs it fit very nicely in my backpack.
I wanted something that started up quickly (average time so far is just 26 seconds plus another 15 to find and connect to wireless) so I was happy to have it running Linux.
Are there any dislikes.
It really works well (so far) in fact now that I am home it sits on the kitchen counter so I can log on with my first cup of coffee and get my email.
The second one had more packing material and seals. I had to return the first PC because it quit working. It makes me wonder if the first one was used.
