"Absolutely great provided you dump the operating system"
Pros: Great looks, great battery stamina and a very nice screen for a netbook. Overall it's a pleasure to use and the keyboard stands out compared to other small machines in that it is close to full size and easy to type at speed
Cons: the operating system set up by Asus is shockingly bad, if I did not know better i would have assumed it to be a pre-production release, it is pants
Summary: Taking a rounded view of cost, portability, battery life and aesthetics this machine is a winner. The Expressgate package is nice and works well, but apart from this I don't understand wht Asus release it with such a mis-match of software though. I had to strip it back to a formatted drive and just add drivers. After this it was responsive and very capable. I expect to keep it for a long time and it will become a good travel companion
