Pros: Affordable 4gb of ram Fast for what you pay, and the 9650 does great for the resolution given. Linux compatibility is ok, no issues with windows drivers

Cons: The keyboard is horrible - literally misses button presses every few seconds. Two letters in a row is almost a guaranteed miss. I'm going to RMA it and hope that things improve, but if not the system is almost useless.

Overall Review: Not bad, but be ready to deal with ASUS support as their QC seems to be a bit lacking.

Pros: Solid drivers for XP, relatively powerful in Vista.

Cons: MAJOR problems in Vista with 4gb of ram. Tried different speeds and amounts and no matter what, 4gb always results in almost instant BSOD in Vista 64bit. 2gb is fine, but 4 causes issues. Avoid for any enthusiast projects.
