 Nice but the operating system had to go September 28, 2008
It's great, but in order to enjoy it I had to load "eee ubuntu."
Now everything is fine.
 I'm Lovin it September 13, 2008
Its what I had in mind when I decided to look for a small, lightweight little laptop for personal travel use. It filled my every expectation.
I wanted something that I could drop in my carry-on and not have to huff and puff as I was lugging it thru the airport.
I'm not expecting it to do my engineering work, I've got a company unit for that (and what a pain it is to use in the hotel room with all its firewall protection).
There are things that some might want in this that it doesn't have, but they would just make it bigger or more expensive.
I've had it 6 weeks now and am real happy; got what I paid for.
Great product for its intended purpose; and really fun August 28, 2008

This laptop is very small and very light. As a consequence, the keyboard is tiny. People complain about that but they miss the point. It isn't as small as a BlackBerry or similar devices. The laptop is about the size of a small book so it is easy to take with you when you don't feel like lugging a huge laptop.
The screen is very good and the Linux OS is just fine. I like Linux but my wife, you is neutral, said she doesn't care if it has XP or not. She can work with her documents and surf no problem.
I used it when I was on jury duty and wrote to my wife and work since we weren't allowed to have cell phones. It connected to their wireless flawlessly and the time flew by as I watched movies and sent email.
Another cool thing is the huge communities that have been created for this thing. They show how to mod it, put operating systems on it, all kinds of things. You can get an MSI wind I suppose, but it won't have the cult following!
good for its price August 25, 2008
cons: this pc gets hot after a while. wireless is not that great despite having strong signal. the linux OS is inflexible
pros: fast and webcam is nice.
 Slowest Laptop EVER August 24, 2008

I purchased this item hoping for a small, highly portable second laptop to take with me when I travel for business. What I got, however, is a PC that takes 20 minutes to boot, hour-glasses every time you move the mouse, and is generally completely worthless. Returned and went with the Eee PC1000 and it is a much better machine.
