I bought this little Asus 1000 to carry with me on my many motorcycle
adventure trips. I wanted the ability to either transfer funds; pay bills while
away, communicate with friends and relatives via my email capability and
store the many photographs I take along the road during my trips, without
having to worry about carrying multiple cards for my digital camera.
My biggest concern (or worry) was not having MS Windows and all of its
attractive software to go along with me. I had never used Linux, nor did I
know much about it. So therefore, it actually scared me. But being the
daring individual I am, I bought it anyway!
I am so happy with this little system, I will try my best to list the many
features that makes me feel the way I do about the little Asus 1000. The
very first thing I noticed about it, is how clear and bright the screen is. It's
almost as nice as my high-end Mitsubishi LCD HD television. Next, you
can't help but notice how long the battery lasts. Although I have not
actually timed it, I know I watched two full movies with my wife while I
played with the functions and surfed the internet and I still had about a
third of its time left on the battery. Wanting to test the wireless ability, I took
it to my wife's place of employment where it captured 18 different WiFi
signals, some as far away as 3-4 football fields. It plays music and videos
perfectly, even without Windows Media Player. Nothing special to do, just
click on a video that was emailed to you and it plays instantly fast. I really
like the internet radio system it comes with. While camping at a KOA, I
found over 20 stations that I liked, with three outstanding Country stations
that I listened to with my head phones on while reading my email from
friends. Although it has not yet happened yet, the only problem I can
foresee is if someone sends me an email with a .doc file attached, I will not
be able to open or read it because I don't have MS Word loaded. But that
is fine with me. I use the Word type program to write my emails, being able
to use spell check, then simply copy and paste to my email for sending.
Some other little things I really like:
PROS:
1) Very attractive case.
2) Small and portable; easy to pack away.
3) Super long battery life
4) Bright, clear and HD like screen.
5) Boots from startup in less than 20 seconds.
6) Shuts down in about 10 seconds.
7) Pretty much "Virus" un-impregnable.

8) Case holds Net book, charger, cables, memory sticks and mini-
mouse.
9) Long range distance on the WiFi.
10) Bluetooth enabled
11) All programs very user friendly and upgradeable.
12) 3 USB ports
13) Large keyboard for a net book.
14) Easily added addition 1Gig of RAM, making it 2gig.
15) Great unbeatable price & very high quality!!!
