Advantages: Very fast and very portable.
Disadvantages: Tiny keyboard and can sometimes feel a little flimsy.

This is a fantastic little laptop. I've been using it for little over a month now and all I can say is WOW!. It's very light and portable, I've had no problem carrying it around with me, even just in my hands. Of course this creates a downside. Tjhe keyboard could be a little bigger. I have fingers like sausages so maybe this is just my experience, but I can not type at my full speed, which is a shame. Also, sometimes it feel's like i could snap ...
...my hands are bigger than average. For such a small laptop, it really is quite fast, as long as you don't want to play games. I only use it to write college reports and light programming, and for this is works wonders. I have the XP version and it is very capable of running word processors and even photoshop.

Advantages: durability, reasonable price
Disadvantages: heat if used long hours and noisy fun inside

This notebook is my first notebook I bought it a year ago soon after it was launched in UK. I paid £499 for it. I don't think I should describe the product description in the review so I will only mention my experiences and opinions. In my opnion, the Satellite series is the reasonable priced notebook introduced by Toshiba. I use it daily and its durability is quite good. The keyboard keys are easy to handle and use. The notebooks come together with ...
...classic looks. When it is used for long hours (like 5 hours or more), it becomes hotter especially near the mouse pad area and the noise of the fun gets louder to reduce the heat inside.

...a million miles from windows. Asus do include the drivers for windows on the recovery disk and also full instructions on installing XP on the unit are included in the very informative manual but using them will require an external cd/dvd rom.

In its stock state you will be able to browse the net and work with word and excel documents. ...
...a compatible (VGA) LCD TV. Asus place a warranty sticker over the memory upgrade flap screw underneath to prevent anyone from upgrading the memory but them, (only available on some models), hairdrier to the ready!!

Speed wise it has enough power to run Windows Xp happily ( although you may need ... Read review
