Love it!!

I've had mine for just over 24 hours; suffice it to say...I love it. I got a little USB mouse for mine because I hate touchpads,and I've just been having a ball -- surfing and doing other little tasks.

I had tested this PC at a local Micro Center, and for a while I considered not getting it because of the keyboard being small and very hard to type on with 10 fingers without making errors. I even practiced for about 10 or 15 minutes in the store, and still kept making errors.

But I was hard-pressed to give up on the thing because I just loved its portability. So I went back the next day and started typing on it again, and strangely, I was improved. And I keep getting better and better on it (I'm typing this review on it with absolutely no problem).

I agree with other reviews that people shouldn't try to make it their main computer; (I myself have a desktop that is my main computer). Yet...you really can make this an acceptable substitute in lots of ways.

I absolutely love it.  more

Quick Review

If you just need the basics... Do NOT be afraid to switch to linux and the ASUS Eee PC. This thing is the bomb for the money. It's perfect for beginners and seniors. My mother has never used a computer and had it figured out within an hour without touching the manual. Yes the screen is small but it's sharp. Plug this thing into a fullsize monitor and it's even more fun. I love it! This was the best money I EVER spent on a linux box. I have an 8G SD card on board and a Western Digital USB hard drive for backups... and it's the perfect solution. My old computer is on it's way to the garage... WOW! Look at all this desk space I now have!

Very handy, cheap and light

I bought the ASUS EEE since it was the cheapest travel notebook in its class. 7" Screen is sufficiently large to work with. The notebook is very handy to carry and easily connects to the internet. I did have to spend some time to get used to Linux environment, but didn't have too much trouble.

Doesn't have touch screen, but its less than half the price of similar products.

Overall a good buy.
