I love my EeePC! August 11, 2008
58 out of 59 found this review helpful
Good
Ultra compact & cool - Everybody who has seen it has commented!
Fast - 1GB of RAM seems to be perfectly OK - Copes well with the programs you would realistically want to run. Mega quick start up & shut down.
Keyboard - perfectly OK with keys are obviously small but I only type with two fingers so it doesn't really bother me
Battery life - I regularly get 6 hrs+ on a full charge
Forums - There is an incredible amount of info on every conceivable question you may have about EeePcs on the web - They seem to have a cult following
Bad
No CD/DVD drive - If you haven't got an external one it's a real pain to restore without it (you have to create a windows bootable flash drive from the restore disk - not as easy as it sounds!)
Bloatware - for a PC with only 12GB of storage there is a lot of rubbish - it takes about 1hr to remove all the unnecessary programs that you don't really need.
Speaker Hiss - There was really annoying crackle (not a hardware issue) with my 901 - to fix this you have to update the Bios to 1001 from the ASUS website (thanks forums)
Small C drive - As this drive is only 4gb you have to be careful otherwise it gets full & causes problems - Make sure that any programs you install are installed on the D Drive otherwise you might be sorry. Once you've installed all the updates for windows your C drive will be nearly full. You find yourself using CCleaner nearly every day.
Overall these small negatives just give the EeePc more character & I would give it an overall 4.5
stars.
