Page 6 - Conclusion
I don't know, for one week i have my conclusions. Quite personal and if i was reading them i woudn't take them for the absolute truth. Still... Here they are.
Stronger sides:
Excelent battery performance.
Good 7” monitor. As in resolution, brightness, contrast and color. Good viewing angles.
Good WiFi coverage.
Scroll on the touchpad. I adore it.
Nicely selected software for the standart Xandros distro.
Quiet an relatively cool machine.
Sive an weight. So light and small, joy to carry around.
Boot up an Shut down speed.

From the bottom – Toshiba L30, IBM 380D, Asus EEE PC
Weaker sides:
Weird management of the WiFi.
Large handed individuals might experience some trouble with the keyboard.
Lack of optical trive. True, for one week i never sensed it, yet it's a fact.
Failure to work with some of my devices.
Antivirus software and English - Chinese dictionary. It might seem weird to you, still i find this... well... plain wrong.
What i can say with upmost certanty is that the notebook has quite nice potential. Windows (well not THAT much of an asset),different Linux distros (including the liked by me SUSE), Compiz and Beryl even with Xandros, Overclocking (so far to 960MHz). Variety of hardware hacks like bluetooth, touchscreen and 16GB flash drives unseen if not pointed out.
Things that tempt me very much. Where will I and my EЕЕ PC get to? That future only knows...
