This review is from: ASUS Eee PC 1015PN-PU17-BU Blue Intel Atom N550(1.50GHz) Dual Core 10.1" WSVGA 1GB Memory 250GB HDD Netbook
Pros:
The cover of the netbook is very slim and shiny. It doesn't attract dust. The weight of this netbook is very light and it has a very decent battery life. It can run for 4-5 hours with Nivida card turned on. I haven't tested it with the integrated graphics though.
I haven't tested out the HD playback yet.
Cons:
Windows 7 Starter and bloatware. It took hours to delete all the garbage it came with. And windows 7 starter is a joke.
I will install ultimate if this netbook needs a reformat.
Rarely, during my installations, the applications would freeze and then work again. But this is due to high RAM usage.
And the resolution is a bit too small, some applications require the use of the whole screen (thunderbird settings etc.) and it would go off screen. But, this is a netbook, there isn't really anything that can fix that.
Overall Review:
If possible, install a 1GB RAM memory into this netbook and it will definitely be worth it. This netbook is definitely worth the buy if you commute to a lot of places during college or some other work related career.
