I have this $250 Asus I got, uh, last year sometime at Best Buy; the same model remains available in the local BB stores, but bundled with a printer pushing the price up. It came with 8.0 installed, and I “upgraded” to 8.1. I prefer to use it hooked to the TV, with a wireless keyboard and mouse, because of the abominable scratchpad thing that is in lieu of mouse (wtf those don’t come with an off switch, I’d really like to know). This isn’t a netbook style, it’s a normal sized screen. I’ll FReepmail you more details if you want.

“because of the abominable scratchpad thing that is in lieu of mouse (wtf those don’t come with an off switch, I’d really like to know)”

Well, because the scratchpad can be disabled in BIOS. ;-)
