Never heard of ASUS until now and just checked out their site ... interesting, and some with W7 ... thanx
You’re welcome.
I bought my first ASUS a month ago - an Ultrabook - and absolutely love it!
Construction quality equal or better than Apple and has a higher resolution screen (Full HD “1920”). Even the packaging was first class.
Got a great deal at Best Buy on this discontinued model (UX-302) with i5 processor - blazing fast.
Bottom line, the ASUS ultrabooks are simply fantastic and very highly recommended.
ASUS started out making motherboards, IIRC, and developed a reputation for a quality product. I bought one of theirs as a replacement back in the early 1990’s. They eventually expanded into notebooks, etc.
My wife has had an ASUS EeePC netbook for a couple of years and loves it.
ASUS is a good computer. I bought many of them for the DoD when I was designing and testing specialty software. Toshiba is so very proprietary that I had trouble getting them cleaned up and usable for the tests and for field trials.
I have mixed feelings regarding HP but it seems that nowadays they work well and have a pretty good track record (from what I have read).
