Review
Great laptop! Vista has slick interface and is network-friendly. Core 2 Duo T7300 is fast. Although not top-notch, nVidia GeForce 8600 GS great at gaming, especially once the memory is upgraded to 2 Gb. Can play most games on high settings (like Halo, Call of Duty 2, F.E.A.R., Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault), although not always maxed out. Great display at 1280x800 (though quality drops drastically at anything lower). Accompanying case fits all my accessories as well as the laptop. Some of the preinstalled softwares, such as the hotkey functions, Power4Gear (power-saving) software, and wireless on/off switch (hotkey function) are pretty handy. 4 USB ports located on 3 sides of case. Webcam is good quality and can swivel; Asus also includes some additional software for it. Hard drive speed is adequate. Disk drive reads and writes fine, although it can get a bit noisy. Wireless works OK. Memory card reader very handy.
