After a long search, I chose the EeeBook because it suited both my budget and in my ideas. Now I use this device already several weeks and can not detect any (major) flaw in it.
I am particularly impressed the power of this little device. Eight hours of battery life can be heard in music, stream video and intense surfing and chatting loose inside. Since the Inspiron long time could not keep up.
The EeeBook with its 11.6 inches smaller than an A4 sheet and fits loosely in each major pocket. To protect your investment, I dazugeholt me an Amazon Basic Laptop Bag. This little thing fits in there loose and even still plenty of room.
What bothers me a bit of the good-sized touchpad. I, with my pretty little hands, can not do much on such a large touchpad. The smart touch features I immediately issued at the beginning, because they were only in the way and have continually responded incorrectly.
I do not feel the case as very prone to scratches. At least I so far have not had a situation in which a scratch would have been possible. Also it rumtapsende dog and cat paws can from that thing. However, one quickly sees fingerprints on the outer shell, but can be removed with a damp cloth quickly.
The search engine Bing was off of me quickly, but could not be disabled everywhere. Chrome was immediately well received and saved as a search engine.
Conclusion: I would buy this device at any time, even if the 32-bit version a bit makes me sweat, when it comes to the search for a program. Otherwise this unit for mobile persons, students and Couch Potatoes is just right. :))
