ASUS Eee PC 1000HA (10" - Atom N270 - Win XP Home - 1 GB RAM - 160 GB HDD)

Pros: Good balance: Atom processor and great battery life. Not portable like 8.9 inch ones but the keyboard is excellent! Good 160 Giga hard disk, instead of small SSD. This machine has enough speed for most applications... Great value netbook!

Cons: I have no complains about 1000HA... Maybe it could come with 3G chip, to become a complete netbook for wireless connection!

Summary: I became an ASUS Eee PC fan, after buying a 900 model, with an old and slow, very slow Celeron 900 processor... This 1000HA is a little bit chubby and heavy netbook (close to the borderline), but the excellent keyboard, faster processor and the 6 cell battery make the difference! This netbook works fine with most daily software, like Office, some games and even the Photoshop CS4 works fine! Of course, forget oppening too many windows, but for a single work, it's almost perfect! This is basically an equipment for web browsing, and for this, works perfectlly! I don't think that this (10 inch screen) was an original target for the netbooks and for ASUS, but this product balance size and good keyboard, with excellent battery life and speed. This is not my main computer, and for this job, this is very competent! Bravo ASUS!!! Congratulations... This is a really good deal!!
