Finally, a practical travel computer. It is tiny but has a real
keyboard. It came with only 4 GB so I bought the extended 14 GB SD
card. It runs under Linux and starts up like RIGHT NOW. None of that
seemingly hour long wait of Windows bloatware to start up so that you
forget why you even needed the thing. It turns off RIGHT NOW too. I
love it. All of the utilities seem to work well and are easy to use.
All of my excel files run on it as do my windoze documents. Strangely
enough, the tiny screen isnt a problem and neither is the smallish
keyboard. It hardly weighs anything. It was only $349 too.

I've seen a few photos of the product line, but that's as close as I
got. I am assuming you mean the 14 GB SD card is the storage medium, and
not the working memory...yes?

The small screen probably would not bother me as much as a small
keyboard. I'll look for one the next time I'm at a microcenter store,
though I'm not in the market for a new laptop or travel computer. But I
like the technology.

I like ASUS stuff. All the desktops I have built in the last 10 years
have had ASUS motherboards.

Good luck!
