I have had my eyes on this one for a while. The Samsung NC10 is starting to give up the ghost after 3 years of solid use but the only thing that is holding me back at present is the price tag. Otherwise if it was £50 cheaper or under that £400 mark I would of snapped it up. Fingers crossed the price comes down over the next few months.
There's a pretty good chance of that happening, what with Ontario coming in the next couple of months. That should give the whole low end market a right good shake that it desperately needs.
Too big to be a netbook imho
Pity the reviewer didnt get to go thru many charge cycles. There are reports on eeeuser.com of power plug pins failing within 1 month of purchase. It seems Asus has a thin power pin that is fragile.
Great machine spoiled by a 50p component… Sad!
Why didn't you try some of the Linux distros on it & tell us how that went?
Selling it without windows might fix the pricing problem.
