N/A 8/23/2010 2:57:53 PM Tech Level: 3/5 Ownership: 1/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5DOA Pros: none - never worked Cons: DOA Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
SJ 8/15/2010 4:30:29 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 2/5VMware wont work Pros: 6 GB of memory in this PC was a good thing. It has built in WIFI as well. Cons: I bought this PC with the hope of running VMWare on this PC. You can install VMWare, but you wont be able to set up an 64bit machines (didnt try 32 bit) since the motherboard and the CPU doesnt support it. It was a waste of time. The graphics drive only give me a max resolution of 1024x768. Dont know why. I have the correct intel drivers. Putting a second hard drive was also hard because of the lack of space. The CD rom eject mechanism is horrible. Other Thoughts: There is no good manuals with the product or on the web to explain the BIOS setting. If you need support there is none at all. I would stay away from this PC if you are not a PRO Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 8/11/2010 8:57:21 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5A find deal Pros: Plenty functional for my application. Ran fine out-of-box. Not much to complain about. Cons: Not the nicest case but it's okay. Other Thoughts: Read the other reviews and make your choice if this is still available. I have no regrets . . . yet. ;^) Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 8/9/2010 6:26:10 AM Tech Level: 1/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5STAY AWAY FROM ASUS!!! Pros: It was nice...while it was working. ASUS customer service was absolutely useless. Newegg customer service was excellent!! Cons: Completely died after 4 days. I contacted ASUS twice concerning the issue. I was promised RMA information by e-mail for a replacement or repair and nothing was received. I contacted Newegg customer service and recieved RMA information within minutes!! Other Thoughts: Spend a few extra bucks and get a HP. I bought a ASUS to save a few bucks and now I regret that decision. Never again ASUS...NEVER!! Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
JL 8/8/2010 7:19:36 PM Tech Level: 3/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5really good one Pros: Really fast, stable. reliable, very quite. Cons: The design of CD-Rom cover is not good, it is easy to break. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Fumin 8/7/2010 12:40:37 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5about the bad power button Pros: fast and cheap. All good except the stupid power button design Cons: For those who found it DOA: it probably only needs a tiny adjustment on the power button. Mine was working upon arrival but wouldn't power up the second time, and every sign shows it's the power button problem. So I took apart the front panel (to do that first take off the side panels) -- be careful since the panel is still linked by two wires -- to find the small white click button on the main frame behind the big power button -- and it was jammed in! All I did was pushing it slightly to place it back so that it's clickable again. Then I put everything back and it worked! Two days later it was jammed again and I had to fix the same problem. Now I learn to push the button gently, and it has been fine so far. Hope this is helpful to some of you. Other Thoughts: Absolutely the most STUPID power button design I've ever seen! But that's probably why we could get it at a cheap price? So maybe it's not such a bad thing... Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
cmptrstdnt 8/6/2010 12:15:29 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Great for the money Pros: Quiet, fast, 64 bit OS, 6gigs of ram can hold 16gigs, big hard drive. Hard to build it for this price. Overall very happy for 300 bucks Cons: Windows Vista takes a really long, long time to update fully. I am pretty patient but PLEASE ! Streamline this microsoft. Other Thoughts: I am going to dual boot Windows 7 service pack 1 and it should be a great comparison Vista vs. 7. I work with raw files and my old machine was topped out on ram. I also am working with Hi-def video. I have a better CPU I am going to trade in with this one after I test it with the all the apps I am going to use. Did you find this review helpful?

N/A 8/5/2010 7:41:23 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5KEEP THE BOX!! Pros: Nothing Cons: DEAD ON DELIVERY! The machine wouldn't even power up. The boxes were tossed by my girlfriend so I couldn't get a credit or a replacement?! So don't toss the box until it works for a full month or so. Now I have to go through the bear of customer service with the manufacturer to get a replacement. Newegg let me down. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

Cons: They SOLD-OUT!!!! If after reading this review and Newegg gets more of these and you don:t buy one,shame on you,you will never know what you missed.
