What Customers Say About ASUS Eee PC 900 8.9-Inch Netbook (Intel Mobile Processor, 1 GB RAM, 12 GB Solid State Drive, XP Home, 4 Cell Battery) Pearl White:

I've bought a cheap, small mouse for the occasions that I am using the netbook for an extended time. My main purpose for adding this review to the many good reviews already here, is to point out that a good, slightly padded, fitted cover is included with the ASUS Eee PC 900 8.9-Inch Netbook. I bought this netbook as an alternative to taking my full-size, laptop with me when I travel, mainly so that I can keep in touch with my family by email, IM and video chats, and it's perfect for that purpose. The included cover is perfect for protecting the netbook from knocks and scratches while traveling. If I had known this, I wouldn't have wasted my money on the Kroo neoprene cover, shown as an accessory for this netbook.My only criticism of my netbook is that the right/left click buttons on the mousepad are a little stiff, but the mousepad can be tapped to left click.
In this tedious process I eventually ended up doing some mistakes and had to use the DVD to get the Eee back to its original state - and start it all over again. After a few installs and Windows Update the C:\ drive becomes full and you can't do anything else. Reading lots of posts across the internet I became aware of several tweaks that works: transferring user files do D:\, which has 8Gb, switching program files folder to D:\, uninstalling everything and installing onto D:\ and so on and on and on. This product is unbelievably fast, has excellent handling, perfect wi-fi, camera is nice, sound is excellent. I was really disappointed by the fact that it wasn't advertised anywhere that the 12Gb flash drive is actually TWO drives - with the smaller one containing the space-greedy Windows XP. The nasty snag is that Windows XP is installed in a *4Gb partition*. It has it all. If I know that beforehand I would had reconsidered my choice of buying it.
My Eee PC 900 is now collecting dust. But, I am not able to find one yet. I will be more than willing to just forget about the warranty and pay for a replacement myself if there is a place to purchase one.
When I press a key, several characters come out. I had been using Dell for the last 10 years, and thought this small, inexpensive PC would be good to browse Internet in the living room. I was happy with it for less than two months, and then the keyboard failed.
Big mistake. I don't think ASUS is ready for prime time. I was on hold for customer support for more than 20 minutes once, and more than 30 minutes a second time without getting to anyone on the other end.
Online tech support is a joke, as the tech support staff kept cut-and-paste the same text telling me to call that number.
I had the unit 3 weeks, one of the keyboard keys froze, I sent it in, they sent me a new unit, no questions although their process is a little cumbersome and their customer service line very slow. Down's include no disc drive (OK unless you want to load software), keyboard is good but requires time to get use to the size. If weight is your prime concern, go with this unit. Works as advertised. Plus's include: size, weight, windows xp, response time.
One of the best purchases that I have ever made. I was contemplating buying a 12 inch laptop, at approx. $1500 but this 9 inch laptop meets all my needs for $550. The mini-lap top by Asus (Eee PC) is the perfect answer for someone who travels. I am an older retired person in my late 60's and would not generally be thought of as a computer geek, but I get identified as one with my new gadget, quite an experience. It is light weight as advertised (2 lbs). It allows me to keep up on my emails, I can watch movies(I have eight movies downloaded on an 8gb sdhd card), I can review my daily photography results and I can surf the web. and yet large enough that it is no problem to use.
