this laptop way exceeds my expectations. great performance. great screen clarity. super light.
it does very well for me using a connection via my tethered phone. it performs light years faster than my windows laptop utilizing a tethered connection. so i highly recommend if your internet connection is a limited one like in a tethered scenario.
keyboard layout is weird.. no page down, page up, delete, and other mainstays. but i am sure i will get use to the new alternative. just don't understand why companies institute change for the sake of change. it is a turn-off.
the laptop is made very well. the keyboard has good action. great display it boots up fast.. real fast from what i am used to. and light.. almost makes it seem cheap. it is not, of course. it is very well made. but that is how light it is.
i am thoroughly satisfied.
the only demerit has nothing to do with the laptop.. but it comes with absolutely NO documentation. not even a quick start guide on how to turn on... what ports are what.. power supply, etc. the manual is a downloadable file online, but how are you supposed to get to that without having enough info to get the thing up and running? i thought this was incredibly thoughtless of asus. i am a retired sun solaris admin, so i am able to get pretty much anything computer related figured out. but i'm writing this for the home user who might buy this thing.
and it seems to not be a fluke. when i was registering the device, the tech person told me that is the way they come... download the pdf. dumb. and overall, asus' website is a kludge, and their tech support is wooden. and all i was doing was registering a laptop. (their registration process online would not work that night, and the website has all the deftness of something designed by a govt agency)
bottom line.. great product. but don't have high hopes for any future company/customer interfacing.
