Pros: Strong mobo for the price. Has been running flawlessly

What touchscreen?

ASUS VivoBook 14.0" Intel Core i5-3317U 4GB Memory DDR3 1600 24GB SSD Windows 8 64-Bit S400CA-DH51T
ASUS VivoBook 14.0" Intel Core i5-3317U 4GB Memory DDR3 1600 24GB SSD Windows 8 64-Bit S400CA-DH51T

Pros: Portable but full featured with a decent battery life, even when on high power

Cons: Touch screen is flakey at best. After uninstalling some ASUS programs, the touch screen does not work at all. Speaking of the ASUS programs, many of their settings pages are there only for show, and do not actually change the behavior of input devices. Biggest con of all is Windows 8. I really wanted to like it, but it is just clunky and not at all user friendly. Does not work well with this device

EVGA GeForce 7900GS 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card 256-P2-N624-AR

Pros: Great card. Using it for dual screening two 19" monitors. Would highly recommend for win XP computers that will never be upgraded to Vista.

Cons: None (just a little annoyed that the priced dropped right after I purchased it)
