Pros: Well, I admittedly went into this expecting a very small, slow half-a-pc. I ordered this for my girlfriend since her desktop just died, and had it delivered to me so I could set it up for her. Well lets just say I turned it on, and every step of the way I was impressed. The screen is on the small side from what I'm used to, but pleasing to the eye. This little thing is fairly snappy also, so long as you don't try and edit video. And the battery, dear lord, the battery! I was messing with this for over 4 hours, and when I checked the battery, it said I had 8 hours of juice left! And it's legit. It's at my girlfriends house and is still at 20% (about 3 hours) after being on for 10 hours. My laptop gets 2 hours tops. That's when it dawned on me: I have spent all my time making my laptop a portable desktop, but the idea is to become smaller, not more cumbersome. Zen moment!

Cons: nothing so far aside from some minor mouse pad gesture issues. Nothing overly annoying. Will give an update in a month or so.

Overall Review: I loved this thing so much I'll be getting one soon. I have decided my laptop is my new desktop, and my netbook will be what I envisioned my laptop to be in the first place.

Pros: This rig runs Vista 64 without a hiccup, thanks to the 3gigs of installed RAM (upgradeable to 4). This pc multitasks pretty well, taking everything I've thrown at it. I can run Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 and do some basic rendering, and download a movie online, all while searching the internet without any major slow down. I added a second Dvd burner and the meager power supply is still fine. Two firewire ports is a plus. For $358 (tax and shipping included) this is a very good deal.

Cons: Gaming would be a tad difficult without upgrading the graphic card. It's a dog. Also annoying is the eject button for the dvd drive. Once you open the drive, the eject button is hidden and loses functionality, forcing you to push the tray back each and every time. Some bloatware installed, but I'm accustomed to that. Took about 25 minutes to remove it.

Overall Review: Newegg: shipped the very next day! Sure, it's just down the rd from their NJ warehouse, but still, I was not expecting next day delivery with standard shipping.
