- Summary: Screen dead after 2 months
- Comment: I was fairly happy with the laptop (N61JQ-A1) for about 2-3 months. The price is ok, it looks good, the perfomance is great, the image fairly clear although the sound/speakers are definitely inferior to other laptops. It was carried around only once, mostly sitting in the office and used 2-3 hours/day. Due to its weight/size it is not the most portable laptop anyway - but that's what I expected. However I would have expected the screen to last a little longer than 2-3 months. While watching news on the internet, the screen flickered a little, and then went black. Computer is still starting normally, but without the screen which makes it definitely less useful. Asus hotline hard to understand but friendly, of course unable to help and issued RMA. Will update how the repair is going.

- Summary: A Good Investment!!
- Comment: I've spent many hours researching laptop brands. I wanted a unit that would serve as desktop replacement, and interface with my home theater setup. This unit came equipped with the features I was looking for and at a great price. I bought low when the price was $949.00 on Amazon. Other options I purchased to use in conjunction with this unit included:
Logitech Performance Mouse MX
Antec Notebook Cooler Model 20
Siig 7PORT USB 3.0 Hub
DAS Keyboard Model 5 Professional
4 GB RAM expansion - later returned
Planar PX2710MW 27-inch monitor
This should do me for another three years!!

- Summary: Rattleing keys and bad resolution for me
- Comment: The only 2 problems I had with the computer are, first thing I noticed was all the keys on the left side of the keyboard rattled, and that is very disappointing for a brand new $1000 laptop. The resolution for me is terrible. I always see all these complaints about he resolution of this machine, here is why the resolution is important. Real estate, the higher the resolution the more you can fit on your screen, I am a Web developer and I need to have many applications open at once and the resolution on this computer is awful for this kind of work. If you are just surfing the web, this might be good enough for you, but I would not recommend this for anyone who likes to see a lot of stuff on the screen at once. You will be constantly scrolling. The web cam looks terrible on Yahoo messenger, that did it in for me.

- Summary: Best Laptop under $1,000
- Comment: I did a lot of research before deciding on this laptop. What sets it apart is the i7 and 64 bit windows with a 1gb graphics card. I was very close to purchasing the Samsung R780, as my friend has one, but this ASUS blows it away! My only complaints are the noisy keyboard and the cheap looking lighting that emits from the speaker panel edges. Save yourself all the time and energy finding out the same thing I did; that this is the best laptop anywhere near the $1,000 mark.
