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 .... Read more

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 .... Read more

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 .... Read more

Asus 901
I did not find the original Linix OS acceptable. It seemed a little kidish to me. So i wiped it and installed Ubuntu. Once that was up and running i could not have been more excited about my new netbook. The keyboad takes some getting use to. The right shift key is not very well placed. The two finger scrolling on the mouse pad is a huge win! I would not give up my netbook for anything. .... Read more

Gotta Run Rating: 5 Stars out of 5
Perfect!
This Linux version of the eee is perfect:
1. Very lightweight and portable.
2. Linux is stable and easy to customize to my needs. Have been using Microsoft products since 1983 on the original version of the PC. Finally, I am free of the virus', security concerns, lack of support, and unreliability.
3. Every application I have been using in addition to MS Office (Quicken, Dreamweaver, Time and Billing, music players, video, Photoshop, and PDF reader) have been taken care .... Read more
