What Do You Think of ASUS Laptops?

Posted by Cliff on from the community-opinions dept.

Dan Guisinger asks: "I'm looking at replacing a laptop that was recently stolen and came across ASUS's new B1000 series laptop. It seams to have everything one could want, dual FireWire ports, DVD, CDRW, 15" screen, upgradable Pentium III cpu using mPGA2 sockets...it even has finger print security. My only problem while looking at the specs is the measly 1024x768 XGA resolution it supports. I am unable to find reviews on this laptop, nor most other ASUS laptops. Can anyone speak of the quality of their laptops overall? How about this particular model, has anyone seen or used the B1000?"

    Wouldn't that be "crack off your finger"?

    Q: What do you think of ASUS' servers?

    A: Not much, they slow down to a crawl when slashdotted.

    From the spec page:

    Hard Disk Drive
    2.5" 9.5mm IDE HDD with Ultra DMA66/100 supported
    Supported capacities up to 30 GB
    Bumping mechanic's design
    Fixed type, easy for BTO

    Some dancin' auto repair technicain desgined it! Also, the hard drive isn't broken because Bachman-Turner Overdrive would find that difficult to use.

    It's not a "nipple". It's a tit-mouse.
