  • Summary: Poor Customer Service.
  • Comment: The thing broke the first week I had it. Worse yet, they actually made me pay the shipping to return it. When I protested they said it was non-negotiable. Needless to say I was annoyed. Asus needs to work on their customer service. Oh yea, and it would be nice if the computer lasted longer than a week too.

  • Summary: Good for general purpose but not good for streaming
  • Comment: This is good and possibly a nice product for a school kid. For professionals, it is not good because you can't do some basic stuffs like remote login using SSH, youtube streming etc.

  • Summary: Asus -- I Returned Mine After Five Days
  • Comment: I really loved this little Asus netbook for the first 3 days. I can't begin to describe the problems, but it finally crashed and I kept getting a message that told me "Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM\vgaoem.fon. You can attempt to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original Setup CD-ROM". Okay... first of all, I only got a support CD, not a Setup CD with the netbook. Second, there is no internal CD drive anyway so it was all useless. I emailed Asus Support but didn't hear back from them. I gave up after a couple of days because I was ready to leave town. Fortunately Amazon, as always, immediately agreed to give me a full refund (I returned the Asus Eee PC) so that I could go out to a retail store and buy a Toshiba NB305 netbook in time for my vacation... and it works very well. BTW, three weeks later I finally got the instructions from Asus Support which might have enabled me to restart the first netbook using the F9 key at Start-up. Not much help at that point, though. I still heartily recommend buying at Amazon -- it is wonderful about refunds or replacing defective products and ensuring customer satisfaction. Too bad Asus isn't as concerned.
