Summary: Great for anyone on the run
Comment: I spend a lot of time traveling to and waiting in doctors offices. In the past, that time was lost but since I received my Eee PC, waiting time is now productive time. The little computer boots up quickly and it's battery lasts for a couple hours without needing a charge. So now, if I'm told that I'll be waiting for hours for a scheduled appointment, I just pull out my Eee PC and start working. I quickly adjusted to the small keyboard and find I'm able to work on it almost as quickly as my regular computer. However, I have small hands and I think that helps. The keyboard would be awkward for someone with large hands.

Summary: Good little laptop
Comment: Laptop works well but I can't get wifi on WPA encryption with Linux. It will connect to wifi but on a lower encryption mode like WEP. Laptop boots up fast and has never crashed. Stable operating system and good to surf the web when on travel. Great as a word processor too. There is no CD drive however. Super light weight and decent battery life. I gave it 5 stars because the laptop did what I intended to use it for. Obviously, if you try to use this as your primary laptop, then that's not a good idea. Makes a great backup laptop when you need to travel light on quick trips. Thanks.

Summary: Simple computer for the road
Comment: If you need a computer that is easy on your shoulders (and wallet) to check email, surf the web and do some light work with an Microsoft Office equivalent, this is the laptop for you. I upgraded the on board RAM to 2 Gb and added a 16 Gb SD card for extra storage, thus the 4Gb SSD is not a limiting factor. The battery could last a bit longer (about 2 hours with WiFi on and not too heavy web surfing). Windows user will not have any trouble adapting to the Easy Mode of the particular Linux distribution that comes with it, and it is fully functional out of the box, as all basic software comes pre-installed. The only problems are the small form factor, so if one plan to use it for extended period of times or as primary computer one would probably want to hook it to external monitor, mouse and keyboard, and the recovery DVD disk (included). It could not generate a functional bootable USB disk to restore factory installed software after a botched operational system upgrade. I could only make my Eee-PC work again after hooking an external USB DVD drive and booting directly from the recovery DVD.

Summary: Easy to get hot, no tech support
Comment: It gets hot in a few minutes, and sometimes have problem with the internal card reader. Emailed tech support twice. No response. The company can fire the tech support and reduce the price of the pc. For the same price, I'd buy a normal laptop which is much more powerful.

Summary: Everything I expected it to be...
Comment: I now have had this pc for a month now and I am really enjoying. I was able to do quite a bit of research before my purchase, so I knew going in what to expect. It is really fast. Connecting to the internet and surfing is very good. I have gotten used to the typing and can now touch type. I will be doing a lot of traveling and the size of it (or lack thereof) is incredible. Until you get your hands on one, it is hard to describe how small it really is. One word of caution is that some USB connection appliances may not work/connect. I was not able to connect my Sony camera. But, I have connected mouse, flash drives, usb drives and they all are picked up quickly by the pc. Overall, a great mini-computer for those who will not rely on it too heavily...internet, email, documents...and for a traveler is perfect.
