It's nice, look pretty, and it's very expensive for not having a DVD-Rom. It is kind of having a very big PDA, but a robust OS. Just trying to imaging how would you install a program, a game or something if you are in your best’s friend house, or neighbored? It’s requerid to have wireless..!!! :cry:

I think the Price is not worded for what you get.

Me too. As sophisticated as it appears to be, it still lacks many features.

I think I also don't need it with it's price. I don't care about DVD-ROM or don't feel like it lack features by hardware side.. I think.. I just need one to surf Internet read mails chat... I already have desktop computer. I think Asus Eee pc would be fine to me, even though it's screen is so small. I really like that pink one that they have :mrgreen: and I like it because it have linux. If I could get 50% discount, I would buy that.

Well, lack of features is ok with most of the people that only use the computer to email, internet and easy stuff. Still I have this felling that what you getting is a very big PDA whit the label of Apple on it. :lol:
