Pros: Open the box and find a carrying bag and mini-mouse, more than I expected for the price. Initial setup was a breeze, except for the wireless connection which was user ignorance and an aged AP. A little googling and a Vista tweak or two and I was good to go. The system performance is amazing, given we moved up from a PIV 3000, 2gb ram notebook. Can't go wrong for the price.

Cons: Warranty required sending in a form or registering online. Talked to someone who warned me about making requests for warranty service from Asus, but since I haven't had the need, I can't confirm this.
