Very Nice
Pros: This little baby has a USB 3.0 outlet, Large HD thats not fully used. The Ubuntu OS is supprisingly fast and works quite smooth. HDMI also a supprise. The computer is very light weight.
Cons: Biggest Con-RAM can not be upgraded. Keyboard a little clunky. Small battery 2 hrs 10 min's on normal settings. 2.5 hours on low setting but hey, it was $200. Wireless a little weak but may be a driver update issue.
Overall Review: Very Happy with the Purchase. Bought 2, His & Hers
Free speech challenged in title Oh My ..
Pros: Faster than I could have imagined. Ubuntu 14.04 is only slightly faster than Win 8.1 at boot and both are very, very fast (6 sec vs 8 sec). Ubuntu has not caught up to some of the new hardware (touch) but doing a good enough job to make me happy. UEFI is B.S. ,was a pain but finally got it. Important to install Ubuntu 14.04.2 ! Not 14.04.1 Turn off fast boot. Install beside Vista as it says in Ubuntu (not win 8) WTH
Cons: 128 SSD is too small, and Ubuntu resides on a 25 gig partition and working well. Win 8 has way too many junk apps.
Overall Review: Very happy camper. Thank you ASUS, Intel and Canonical.
