Customer Reviews
This device is awesome but make sure you know what you are buying
This device its awesome, the best part is the SSD, I wouldn't buy it if it where HD, so make sure you know:
1)SSD are not HD and you shouldn't use them as if they were, avoid write unnecessary stuff on SSD like swap
2)The manufacture O.S. Works for nothing, I installed UbuntuUMPC 8.10 and works wonderful, make sure you know Linux before buy this one, in other case buy the WindowsXP Version
I love this thing.
This is just perfectly designed for its purpose, extreme portability, email, web surfing. I admit I can't use touch typing on it, but the keyboard is not bad for one so small. To me that's the only negative though and is easily offset by the light weight and compact size of the Eee PC as well as the amazing battery life.
After trying a live version of Eee Ubuntu, I decided for now at least to stick with the Xandros installation. But I did use information from several user sites to change it so that I can boot into an advanced desktop mode or use the simple mode that comes with it.
Unlike my laptop, which I have rarely taken with me unless I really had to have it, this goes everywhere. I can just drop it in my briefcase - it's like throwing in a book.
I was also amazed that it came with actual printed hardware and software manuals. Not to mention a sleeve to protect it and a cleaning cloth.
All in all a really nice piece of technology, practical, useful, sturdy and not overly cumbersome.

I love the solid state hard drive & the linux operating system. Being that it is only 1 gig, its not quite as fast as my 2 gig larger computer, of course that is expected.
The only negative I can think of at this moment is that ASUS usually doesn't keep up with the latest version of Firefox. For example, when I first got it, it still had FF2 on it. It took a couple of weeks until they updated it to FF3 (ASUS is control of the updates). At the moment I am writing this FF 3.0.5 has been out for a couple of weeks now but ASUS has not updated it & is still using FF 3.0.4. Not using the latest version of a browser can be a security risk - for any browser!
Other than this one negative, I absolutely love this computer!!
