eee pc 901.

Amazing product. Liked a lot.
Pros:
1. Extremely convient since light weight.
2. Attractive.
3. Very sturdy, need not handle it delicately.

Cons:
1. Battery runs out even when I shut down (need to check this closely), when suspended it runs out faster than expected.
2. Have been having issues with volume. Some times there is no sound all of a sudden, need to reboot to fix this; thats a pain.
3. I expected linux to be faster than this since I have an alternative debian system which has smaller configuration. I guess the heavy gui is slowing it down. But its not a major drawback. BTW, the console is hidden deep down. Check in Web storage to open a terminal.

Great little Asus computer

Small but powerful unit. Have had it for over a month now and couldn't be more pleased with everything about it. I love the Linux OS and all the programs that are available for it including -mail. I was so frustrated with with my XP computer, it took forever to get my e-mail and search the web. My wife was so impressed with the speed, she wants one now. Asus has a good web site for any help you may need.
I have also always got the greatest service from Amazon.com and will continue to shop there.

Really a nice little machine.

The Eee PC is almost perfect. The boot time (for the Linux model) is very fast. Wireless networks are found and listed for you soon after boot-up. The tabbed interface for Linux is simple and straightforward. Really a nice little machine. For those of you that want full fledged Linux, the standard Xandros desktop can be enabled, with a little work. Star/Open office is included and works fine with Microsoft Office documents. Firefox and Skype are included and web surfing is a joy.

The only real 'cons' I have are the sensitive keyboard and touchpad. If you have large "Fred Flintsone" fingers and hands like I do, there is a definite learning curve if you want to type on the Eee PC. After a week, I find that my fingers and hands are getting used to the smaller keyboard, and I now subconsciously know not to rest my wrists on the touchpad while typing.

PC901

This is a great little PC! It does everything I want. I installed WinXP Professional and it works fine. All software should be loaded to the D drive, and when done, I still had 600-700 MB of free space on C. I recommend shutting off the automatic SW update feature, and selectively add updates as needed. The mouse pad is not good, but I have heard there is a better driver. Can anyone help me whith this?

Overall, a very good product. I recommend it.
