I bought this mostly for travel. I was looking for something small enough to put in a backpack and that would give me access to email and the web. I was happy with the size and weight. The built in camera and microphone does a good job with Skype. I'll probably buy the memory upgrade as the machine tends to be a bit on the slow side if you want to do more than one thing at a time. There were some cheaper options when I bought this - I think I might go with one of them if I had the chance to do it again. To be fair, I don't know how the competition would compare.

I'm a third year University student and this laptop helped me alot in every way! It's incredibly light and small yet extremely powerful for an Eee PC. This is my first Eee PC and i'm definately gonna get another one in a couple of years! It has an amazing battery life - up to 7 - 8 hours while running skype, microsoft word, google chrome (youtube), windows media player all at the same time. It has great multitasking capability and the keyboard is very well designed!

Netbook that feels like a workstation!
May 16 2011

Loving this netbook!!
Suprisingly, ...I bought this to use for a mobile HTPC (home theater pc).
I currently have an old dual core integrated graphic laptop set up in my living room running boxee through VGA and audio cable, and wanted to replace it with something that had HDMI and could be moved between rooms.
This netbook is awesome!, feels more snappy than my M4400 mobile workstation while surfing the net, movie quality and graphics are fantastic, long battery life for traveling.
It makes my other boxee laptop seem stupid slow.
Important upgrades:
Windows 7 home premium or ultimate (allow for Ion auto graphic switching between intel integrated and Ion dedicated)
2GB ram (Note the Crucial memory listed on Amazon buy together is WRONG!!!, and wont work, ..hopefully they will fix this, but verify before buying)
I still am only running 1 GB while I wait for the new memory to come in, and still great speed
Issues: I struggled a bit to get the correct HDMI sound driver after fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate as it was not listed on Asus website or on Nvidia
...supposedly it should be included in the nvidia Ion drivers, ..but mine would not work.
Just search for Nvidia HDMI driver, Ion
I have not had a chance to test the battery life yet, but show over 9hr while on integrated graphics and 60% brightness, ...over 6hr with dedicated ION graphic and super performance selected
I still have not installed and games, or 3D design programs yet, but I am sure it can handle it
So Pros:
Quick enough for average computer use that you would not know it is a netbook
Great graphics performance
Great battery life
HDMI out
slick design
Cons:
Windows starter does not allow for auto graphic switching
cannot be tuned on by mouse from sleep
Will run warm when running HD, but not bad
So good I want to use it all the time for my main computer and have a hard time leaving it connected to a TV
I would recommend it!! ...in fact I dont think I will ever buy a bigger laptop again
Update:
Netflix uses Microsoft Silverlight to play content, ..which does not support the Ion graphics card
..HD is choppy and un acceptable
Though watching youtube, amazon movies and hulu content in full screen HD works great (uses Flash not silverlight!)
if you are buying this to watch netflix, ...you are out of luck as long as microsoft silverlight powers the content

This is my first netbook and I'm loving it already. I've had it for less than a week but I'm already using it more than my primary laptop. The purpose of buying is for a 10 week study abroad trip in Europe that I leave for this week. To this end I am very pleased with the size and weight of the netbook. This unit is great for travel.
A couple things to note:
I used Microsoft's cheap student upgrade program to go from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Professional (costs about $30) and I'm definitely happy I made the switch. Starter is just a bit ridiculous in my opinion.
I've also ordered a 2gb stick of RAM from Crucial. THe machine is speedy and is excellent for internet, productivity and media streaming. It can get bogged down when running several intensive programs together (Skype, Firefox, iTunes, etc) so you can't go wrong putting in extra memory. Like the Windows 7 student upgrade, this will only cost you about $30.
Overall, great product that I would highly recommend.

I like but didn't have much luck with my first Asus netbook. However, the problems were ironed out eventually and my daughter has a very reliable and portable computer AFTER I swapped out the hard drive for an SSD. The original hard drive crashed a day or 2 after arrival, when the computer was returned to Amazon. The second crashed a few months later and was replaced by and SSD.
Nevertheless, I was impressed by the specs on this model as well as positive comments, so I picked one up for a trip to Mexico.
I assumed that I would have replace the hard drive with an SSD for field work but did not assume that I would have to do it so soon or that it would be so difficult:
1. The hard drive started to throw bad sectors after 2 weeks ... just a few days before my trip
2. Asus did not provide a rescue CD with the computer and does not even sell one! ANY CRASH means that the computer needs to be returned to ASUS for repairs if you don't have images or clones available.
3. Available driver downloads on Asus.com are not adequate.
I ended up replacing the hard drive with an SSD from Fry's and replaced Windows with Ubuntu since fresh installs of Windows 7 on this box crashed after updates and Windows would not recognize Wireless, a network adapter and other devices without appropriate drivers from Asus. Ubuntu installs well and recognizes all of the devices.
