- Summary: Great till the screen went blank
- Comment: Delivery was within the shipping timeline. Wonderful product out of the box. Plug & Play with easy access to our wireless networks. The keyboard was not too small and RAM effectively managed web applications. Windows 7 Starter is minimalist; any applications beyond Web access will need drivers downloaded. For some inexplicable, to me, reason, the screen went black during a routine on-line session. The Netbook was no longer of any use.
Amazon's 30-day return for refund policy is GREAT! Thank goodness it did not go blank on day 31.

- Summary: I would give it 6 stars if I could ...
- Comment: I seldom write reviews but I love this netbook - I have had it for 3 months and it has far exceeded my expectations - I can't believe how fast it boots up - 11 seconds - always brings a smile to my face - I have never used any other computer that comes close to it - I am also amazed by the long battery life - I really didn't believe the specs - makes me wonder what's wrong with all the others - love the keyboard - way better than my Sony VAIO that cost 3 times as much - thanks again and again to the other reviewers who said be sure to get the white model - it is beautiful - I get comments on it all the time - and for some reason it really doesn't show fingerprints - I am really happy that I bought this - seems like a fantastic price for what you get ...
the two negatives I will mention are (1) I didn't like some of the touchpad settings (it was always scolling by accident) and it took me forever to figure out how to modify them (go to control panel - hardware and sound - mouse - device settings - settings) (2) there is a noticeable delay loading some websites - I figure that is the tradeoff with a netbook and I am more than happy to wait a few extra seconds - I am a big skeptic about most things but ASUS has totally earned my respect with this computer - I highly recommend it ...

- Summary: Asus isn't kidding about "all day computing"
- Comment: My battery, at 88% right now is showing 10hr remaining battery life as I type this review. I use this netbook for days before I have to recharge it. Without a doubt, this laptop's greatest feature is its phenomenal battery life.
I upgraded to 2gb of ram shortly after purchase, and also installed Windows 7 Ultimate Edition x64 (which works beautifully, if you were wondering). I enjoy snappy performance of all of my MS Office productivity programs, as well as speedy web browsing, movie playback, and music.
This is, of course, not my primary computer as I also own a full-featured 17" notebook. However, the Asus EEE PC 1005pe is a fine travel companion, and I can do everything I need and want with it on the road with virtually no compromises. I always feel like performance is up to snuff, and even this impatient reviewer never thinks anything lags too much.
Upgrade the ram, upgrade the OS if you like (I definitely like!), and you will have more of a "notebook" than a "netbook."
Lightweight, stylish, extraordinarily easy to bring with you everywhere you go, this Asus EEEpc is a total winner. Look no further.
