Pros: The high resolution screen is gorgeous. The laptop is quiet and not very heavy. It's a powerful machine, but you don't have to carry around a beast. The price is VERY good and still relatively cheap considering how much power is packed in this thing.

Cons: I love the num pad, but I'm not a fan of the '7' key also being the 'home' key. It makes programming a bit difficult.

Overall Review: ASUS customer support was fantastic. I had one issue when I was trying to connect to my home network but my networking card wasn't configured correctly. I called ASUS and they talked me through the issue and everything was fixed in 10 minutes.
