the netbook is ideal for traveling - light, fast, brilliant, chic. but: after one year is my enthusiasm away. The battery is good for nothing. I had the new Asus netbook 3x Sent: after 8 months only half battery performance> after 1.Service overheating and system crashes> after 2.Service discharges the battery in is shut down system. the first courteous ASUS service is the end of the 12 month warranty period so bureaucratic tough that I device in a further consequence of the defective verbastelten probably need an attorney. also from Linux Ubuntu LTS 14:04 I would now strongly advise against. against ubuntu 12:04 I have registered only deteriorations after the upgrade. unstable. continuous error messages during updates. eternally slow start. Windows programs will no longer as before run under Wine. the practical hibernation can no longer set. selected view settings, brightness etc are after every reboot to normal. !!! annoying
