I bought this little Asus 1000 to carry with me on my many motorcycle adventure trips. I wanted the ability to either transfer funds; pay bills while away, communicate with friends and relatives via my email capability and store the many photographs I tak
*The toy is very nice and mobile. *The small screen makes it harder to keep my spine straight. *I did not like Xandros --- some problems appeared right away. **I changed it to openSUSE and it is works very well now. OpenSUSE installation as here: [...] Af
ASUS Eee PC 1000 10-Inch Netbook (1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 40 GB Solid State Drive, 20 GB Eee Storage, Linux, 6 Cell Battery) Fine Ebony This computer is the easiest machine I have ever used. From a few of the reviews I have read it so
I am very happy with the EEE-Pc 1000, Linux. The keyboard is a huge improvement over the 900 version, with a much better feel, and more normal-feeling size. Battery life seems to be sufficient, although I have not tested it very hard. The right-hand sh
this thing is awesome. i love it. fits in the glove compartment of my car, don't have to worry about it getting stolen. i am a computer weenie, so linux is not a problem for me. ymmv. battery life is great. swapped out the 1gb so-dimm (there is
Just got my Eee Asus 1000, white, running Linux. First I have to say is that I really can not stand Microsoft, or XP, or Vista, or the New Office Suite. So I really don't have much use for non-*nix operating systems. OK, got that out of the way. Li
This is a great little netbook. Don't expect it to perform like a full laptop, but as far as netbook's go, this is one of the best. I get great battery life with normal use. It has many great features that others do not, such as bluetooth, a goo
I need more stars for this item. The EEE 1000 w/ ssd is awesome, plain and simple.
I've had the eeepc 1000 for about a month now and it's wonderful. It's light, loaded with useful software that makes it easy to communicate with the Mac software, battery lasts between 5-6 hours, has vid cam and is skype enabled, offers eas
At $387, you can save a few bucks ($12 to be exact) on this little machine. I recommend scrapping the installed OS and putting "Easy Peasy" on it, which is an Ubuntu-based distro designed specifically for netbooks. After that is installed, you
I love this thing. I am an adjunct professor at a local college, teaching Network Security. I pretty much HAVE to have a computer I can carry with me. The problem is that I blew several discs in my back some years back. Even standing for a long time i
I should have bought my EEEPC1000 on Amazon if I knew it is $40 lesser than other place. The product itself is really nice. Not a cheap-made product.
The unit is great. I wiped the Xandros Linux hack that was on there and installed Fedora 10 & upgraded the RAM to the maximum of 2GB for $17. This is the ultimate in portability.
Portable & light. Very long battery life. Runs fairly cool & extremely quiet. LCD is bright and clear. Everything works out of the box. SSD is quick when reading. Highly recommend.
I almost purchased this model - personally I think solid state drive will be the future - shock proof, no noise, faster, lighter - all in all far better than regular hard drive. However, there are two factors that push everyone out to HDD base : the more
This ASUS netbook is well designed, lightweight and performs very well. The instruction booklet is comprehensive. The battery life is extraordinarily long, as stated, under ideal conditions. ASUS website is difficult to navigate and needs a revision.
This computer ASUS Eee PC 1000 10-Inch Netbook (1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 40 GB Solid State Drive, Linux, 6 Cell Battery) Pearl White would be few people's choice as a primary computer. It does not have the power to accomplish proc
In agreement with many reviews, the version of Linux that comes with the pc 1000 is a joke. That is not a problem though; as soon as I verified proper function, I wiped it and installed Ubuntu-eee (now called "Easy Peasy") from a USB thumb driv
40G SSD is sufficient for most of people, for us who traveling around at all time, a small size laptop is extremely useful.
The Asus Eee PC 1000 comes installed with an OEM Xandros distro, but can run other Linux distributions easily (Eeebuntu is best right now, IMO) from any of its USB ports or from an SDHC card (my choice). This netbook boots from SDHC in less than 55 second
bought this netbook about a month ago and have been constantly using it since. changed the xandros linux OS to ubuntu. this has made the machine MUCH easier to use. nothing at all to complain about now. it's great!
I've waited years to see this and now finally it is here, an ultra compact touch-type able wifi surfer and no M$ too! I'm new to Linux so I'm still on the default Xandros, but activating IceWm enabled me to find a better theme for the appli
Where do I even start? This mini laptop has everything the ordinary person could ever want in a machine. Connection to wireless internet is flawless and the linux system it comes with is a breeze for anybody to use. The keyboard is perfect for most uses
Although I do have some experience with linux, I have just been using this device so far as an out-of-the-box appliance. I'm not comparing it with any other netbook - I have no experience in that respect - but rather with high-end laptops and deskto
Estoy muy contento con esta mini-laptop. Es muy práctica, ligera, se lleva a todas partes. Desquita con creces su precio bajo. Esta especial, para aquellos que no nos quita el sueño contar con la laptop mas potente. El hecho de que la bateri
I short, I love it. The folks who don't love it are trying to make it do something other than what it intended to do. I love the fact that it's light. I love the fact that the keyboard is just big enough to touch type on (not so with the 8.9 in
This is a *very* good product. I tried a couple of netbooks with different sizes but this 10" works best for me. The screen and keyboard are nice and small but still big enough to work with. I bought this version because I wanted a SSD, not a harddis
I wouldn't use it as my only machine, but as a portable it is fabulous. I can toss it in my backpack and never feel like I am toting around a major electronic device. It is reliable, and for programming, works beautifully. I have yet to upgrade the o
My EEE PC 1000 40G just arrived today. In the past hour I've managed to unbox it, plug it in and power it up, connect it to a secure WiFi access point, create a Google document, sync all my Firefox bookmarks from my other computer, and log into a sec
EEE with Solid State Drive was my choice because I'm going to use it mostly in the car and public transport, instead of PDA. After playing with default Linux-based system, tried to install XP to the second large SSD - it was too slow. Reinstalled to
It was with great thought that I decided to upgrade from the eeepc 700, as I'd had a very good few months run with it. Because I travel a lot, airport security hassles were a minimum, as I could toss it into a small backpack without worry and setting
I have had my eee for about a month now and really love it. The screen looks absolutely great. Native resolution is 1024x600, which is more than adequate for most stuff. The built in speakers are also surprisingly good. MP4 movies and MP3s play and sound
I love this little computer. I use it for everything; it's great for school. The only issue that I've had with it was the operating system. It came with Xandros pre-installed, but it is incredibly oversimplified and the icons tend to disappe
When I received the computer with Xandros, the first thing I did was plug in my external drive and install Windows XP Pro with nLite to make the installation smaller and slipstream the drivers into the install to speed things up a bit. With XP Pro running
quite a great gift for a programmer/developer - it runs smoothly with development tools like Eclipse, IDEA etc
I like this mini PC , it is small and light, this is what iam looking for
Great little netbook nice bright screen. Fine for what it is intended for i prefer a larger screen but in this realm 10" is about it. I basically got as a backup for my laptop so i only use occasionaly but it gets done what i want. Product is fine fo
This is a great little laptop. The ASUS software that comes on it works great. I would still be using it if it would have worked with my Bluetooth mouse. It would lose its connection and I couldn't get it back unless I deleted it and reconnected. So,
You can scan over the dozens upon dozens of reviews here to tell you everything that's great about this computer, and I agree with every one of them. But after using the computer I found a design flaw that can make you want to throw the thing out the
I like the computer overall. The size is nice and the fact that the keyboard is nearly a full sized makes it good typing. I, thus far, have only used it type papers for classes or take notes. This is primarily because the OS doesn't allow me to do th
I have to say this laptop initially impressed me. The linux installed was easy to use, but like others have said, i wanted something i could customize alittle more and since i wasn't familiar with linux i opted to install windows XP. Now getting XP
I like my 1000, but have yet fall in love with it like some others have. It's very portable, and great batt life. For internet on the go, you can't beat it. And the fact that it has a Wireless-N card built in is a nice bonus compared to its comp
Pros: Small and light for throwing in your bag with a sweet price tag. Has enough processing power for web surfing, listening to music and composing papers. Since it has an integrated video card gaming is not exceptional, but great at solitaire! Great
This PC is more attractive than it looks online. It's very sleek, shiny and nicely shaped, and the neoprene case it comes with is nicer than you'd expect at this price. The 10" screen is about as small as I can handle, but it's very fu
I bought this netbook (Asus Eee PC1000 with Xandros Linux OS) as a highly portable, easily networkable device (wireless n) with a decent 10 inch screen. Being unfarmillar with Linux, I have spent a lot of time on the Asus forum pages and have been able to
I already own an 4G ASUS Surf, I was so pleased with it that when my son, a high school student, needed a lap top for document processing a second ASUS was a no brainer. If its easy to transport and use you're more likely to use it. I also chose it B
I bought this computer with portability in mind, as I already have a desktop for when I needed a large screen and heavy processing power. I'm happy that I chose the eee pc, and I'd recommend it to my friends, but let me go over a few things. Ph
This seemed like a small cheap traveling laptop. Not so cheap! For most of the programs I use, Linux will not work. So, you must buy and install Windows. To install windows and other Programs you will need an external disk drive. After installing wind
First, the good stuff. It's totally light weight just like they said and the 10" size is perfect for carrying around. Also, as they said, it's really, really easy to use! All you do, is click the "web" icon and you're off sur
I was a little disappointed until I put Ubuntu on my new Eee PC. Now that I've installed it, it feels like a real computer. Also, the touchpad is a little quirky, the mouse buttons are cheap, the keyboard occasionally double-types keys, and the righ
