 Why I love the eeepc 4G July 13, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought the 4G about 4 months ago and have loved the change from hauling around a full-sized notebook. I and my family do a fair bit of international flying and you really notice it on 20 hour plus traveling marathons. I changed over to XP and used a free program called Nlite to get the install down to 1 GB. I have two small kids and I loaded up an 8 GB SD card with Pixar movies that I ripped from DVDs to mpeg 4 at about 300 to 500 MB each. It works very well as a portable DVD replacement using VLC media player (free). A video-out port instead of the D-sub would have been nice. My wife, who did not initially undersand why we needed a fifth computer, is now a believer after one trip. The low price point also helped.
The other thing I have noticed is how much I'm enjoying the form-factor when I'm not traveling. Because it is the size of a medium hardback book , I can keep it on my bedside table plugged in. The cord is long and since the power brick is at the plug you don't really notice the cord. I just prop it on my upper chest and surf away. (not a position for typing). Other times I use it on the couch or in a chair and I can get into far more comfortable positions with it than a full 6lb notebook. Basically I would rather surf with this device than any other computer. Still for serious typing, you can't beat a full sized notebook or desktop.
The 4G does not replace any of my other computers, but it is a welcome addition that has made surfing more like reading a book than sitting at a full-sized computer. I know there will be other sub-notebooks from other companies that will have bigger screens and hard drives for the same price, but this does what I want now so I'm not worried about what's down the road. Bravo ASUS!

The 4G is a wonderful "take every-where computer" for a busy world. It has programs for everyone and Linux OS is simple to use and learn. I added 2gigs of memory and never look back. If you're in need of a note taker, photo keeper, email source and more look no further than the ASUS Eee PC 4G. It's a Winner !
Cute! Awesome little computer June 29, 2008
I was so excited to get the ASUS, got mine in pink, only had it for about a month now. This thing is SO fast on the internet, amazing! I have had a few incidents where it simply would not connect to wireless, which was a huge problem when it was times I was trying to use it for work. It was a bit weird using the tiny keyboard at first, I have large hands for a woman, but got used to it pretty well. I was so amazed that I could plug in my flash drive, edit a Microsoft Word doc, and save it. That was awesome, seeing that the ASUS does not have MS Office! If you're going to be out and about, be sure you charge the battery to full before you go. I'm not yet sure what max battery time I get because the times I have taken it out, I had not checked to be sure it was fully charged. I also purchased the matching mouse through Amazon, but the company who sold it charged way too much for shipping/handling (my mistake for being the sucker to pay it) and they didn't deliver in the promised time frame. I think you can get the matching mouse at Best Buy--do that! Overall, if you're looking for a lightweight on-the-go computer for basic internet, email, etc. this is cute, fun, and functional!
Love it June 20, 2008
Wow!! I cannot believe I was afraid of Linux. The computer is so simple to use, easy to carry and so convenient. My 7 year old figured it out in about 10 minutes. I am amazed at the size and haven't had any probelems with the size of the keyboard or mouse. Sometimes the size of the screen gets to me, I have to scroll around to see the full program, and then I realize that I can carry this in my purse and have it with me everywhere. I can live with a quick scroll.
