ASUS Eee PC 901

With the Atom processor, I'm getting 5.5-6-hours of operation from the battery. The screen is bright and easy to see. ASUS has divided the SSD into two approximately 6G "drives," "C" and "D." With the installed software, drive "C" had only 1G of free space. When I installed anti-virus protection and other software, I set up a folder on drive "D." This could cause problems in the future since most programs automatically want to install on drive "C." For some reason, ASUS provides two office suites of word processing, spreadsheet database etc. MS Works and Star Office. That seems duplicative. At some point, I'll probably uninstall one of them to free up space on "C."

The keyboard, while small is easy to type on. Main complaint is the sensitivity of the touch pad. Hit a key too hard and the ASUS thinks you've tapped the touch pad and moves the cursor, and you find yourself typing in the wrong place. I think there must be a way to disable the touch pad in favor of a USB mouse, which should solve that problem.

I bought a 16G SD card, so I should have plenty of space for photos when I travel with the ASUS.

ASUS EEE 901

Worthwhile purchase. It has proved to serve its purpose for an alternate computer. It very convenient and versatile. I would not recommend it as a primary laptop/computer.

Very satisfied

Very satisfied with my purchase. It's really portable and the communication features (Wi-fi, bluetooth, web cam) are very convenient. Initially concerned about the size of the flash memory but it proved to fulfill my needs. My only problem is that my son took it from me to college and eventually I'll have to buy another for myself. . . .

A bit too small?

Over all I'm a big fan of the Eee. For 99% of what you'll do with it, it's awesome. It's surprisingly performant, and has great battery life, though don't expect the 6-7 hours the write-ups will promise - I'd say 4-5 is more realistic (still, that's pretty good considering my full-sized Dell gets about 45 minutes off the tether). Also, it's small enough to fit in almost any bag, durable enough so you don't have to worry about putting it in any bag, and so light you won't even notice.

The one issue is that the keyboard is too small. Typing more than a few lines is extremely frustrating even if you have small hands, and so far "getting used to it" isn't helping much. If you're planning on using this to take notes in class or write on the go, I recommend you look into something larger. I ignored reviews that made this same complaint and am regretting it now.
