Summary: dissapointed
Comment: I really wanted to like this PC, but when my Verizon phone modem would not work, I was dissapointed. To make matters worse, the tec support at Asus were a joke. I sure hope they get their act together.

Summary: Lite, fast and ready for your backpack
Comment:
With linux and without windows - I got the black one.
Twice the RAM and twice the disk space - duhh. But if you want to slow things down with Windows - buy this one - install windoze - and have the faster box.
Voice recognition is a lot of fun. And this linux package with office, mail, wifi, firefox and free patches and upgrades - means you quit paying after you buy it. But if you choose windows you are just beginning your buying spree.
I like the programming tools of perl, python, ruby and java - access to the command line with a ctl-alt-t sets up the terminal.
I plan to slip this into my backpack (2 pounds) and surf my way between large cities in europe by train. The small keyboard takes time - I am 6'3" have large hands, and am up to about 30 wpm.
What I really like is the 6+ hours batter life. I put this on my headboard and when I want the net, I just reach back and boot - about 30 seconds. With wifi I am up and surfing in a lot less than a minute. When I have done what I wanted, it will shut down in about 20 seconds.
It is about as easy as reaching for a book to read.
You can't go wrong with this little linux jewel - if you want everything - and have the ability to travel easily too - 5 stars *****

Summary: Easy, Fast, Great
Comment: Have had the 901 in black for 4 days and have to say that it was worth the wait. Fast, simple interface - boots in 20-25 seconds. Bright screen; Great battery life - surfed for about 5.75 hours before we dropped to under 15%. The only downside whatsoever is the lack of management tools in this version of Linux.
In general, I would highly recommend this PC. Great job - ASUS!!
