"Perfect for my needs; lightweight; sexy; attention grabber."
Pros: Lightweight, super quiet, crazy thin, doesn't get too hot.
Cons: The screen on mobile mode isn't super bright, but it's still great.
Summary: I LOVE it. I purchased it last Christmas as a compliment to my new desktop PC. The synchronization dock and software makes it the perfect commuter laptop. It's light, quiet, and the battery is pretty good (the extended battery is great--that's my next purchase). Being as small as it is, it obviously doesn't have a CD drive, but with the synchroziation dock (it can act as an external hard drive for your desktop!), I haven't found that to be a problem.
It's been perfect for me for graphic design on the go, internet browsing, mobile movie watching, etc. It's still a competitive ultraportable even though it's not a new release. The processor speed is half that of my desktop, but I haven't found that to be a problem at all. It runs with Photoshop, Adobe, several browsers, Office Suite, AIM, and Flash open all the time with ease. There's no humming/screeching fan because this doesn't have a fan at all. It's one of the few (perhaps the only) fanless notebooks in the USA. My previous laptop had fan issues that were unresolveable, but this little Actius is just awesome.
For mobile computing, it's perfect. I couldn't ask for a better notebook out of today's market offerings. It's a small little guy but it packs a BIG PUNCH at only 2 +- pounds. It draws attention, too, that's for sure!!
