GOOD BET JR

I FOUND THIS LITTLE BEAUTY GREAT. THE WIFI IS BEST I HAVE SEEN. THE OS NON-MICROSOFT IS GREAT FOR A NET MACHINE. KEYBOARD IS GOOD. THE MOUSE CLICK BOTTONS ARE DIFFICULT BUT VERY USABLE. IT IS VERY FAST RESPONDING FOR IT'S SIZE. THE SCREEN IS VERY CRISP AND SHARP.

great laptop if you know what you are buying.

This is a great choice for anyone of two categories that need a laptop for work, web browsing and are willing to use Linux. The first category of people this computer is good for would be people with no prior computer experience, the included Xandros operating system is very easy to use but if you are used to computers (windows or mac) it will prove to simple and confusing (at least it was for me). This leads to the second category, people who know computers well enough to install a different OS than the one packaged with the EEE. This OS is a special version of Ubuntu Linux made for the EEE, it's a much richer OS than the Xandros it comes with but requires a little more knowledge about computers and linux to use.
for me this is the perfect computer but for the user who wants a easy but not dumbed down experience, I think Windows is still the way to go.

p.s. battery life in Ubuntufor me is around 3+ hours on low brightness with networking off, just what I need for typing in class!

Great School Computer

I purchased the ASUS Eee 900 primarily for web surfing. As a teacher, I use the web for resource information. Also, I use the Eee in class for PowerPoint displays, videos, and interactive lessons via an LCD projector. The ASUS is perfect for my uses. It's light, compact and interfaces well for my needs. I have the Linux version and am completely happy with it. As opposed to the various Microsoft OP's I've used, the Linux is virtually trouble free. In comparing transporting the Eee to and from school, setting up quickly in a classroom, and not worrying about moving the computer around while running (no hard drive to worry about) with a standard laptop previously used, the ASUS is superior. The only downside I have found is the keyboard is small and has been a difficult adjustment for me, and the keys require quite some added pressure when striking. Otherwise, it has been a great purchase.

ASUS EddPC 900

Good basic PC for internet, email, and word processing. Battery life not very good, less than 2 hours. Also when not in use the battery, even though fully charged when turned off, loses 80% of the stored power within a week. Best to remove battery when not in use.
