 Shift this December 12, 2008
This is a nearly perfect replacement laptop.
I picked this up for a friend and nearly kept it for myself. I'd rather run something other than the OS that is on it, but for most people XP Home edition is perfectly fine. In fact many prefer its familiarity and efficiency over Vista Home edition.
There are three minor issues:
1) the reduced size keyboard means a shift key is in an odd spot
2) the touchpad proximity means that you'll want to use a mouse most often and disable the touchpad
3) the reduced height screen makes some applications a little difficult to use
But these are really minor issues when you consider how inexpensive the PC 1000H is and how lightweight it is. Not too long ago you could pay a very high premium for a laptop that weighs just two pounds.
The battery life and performance are excellent. You might think that you are only going to get a couple of hours from such a small unit but it will run all day on one charge.
You can not wait forever! December 12, 2008
I paid for $450 three month ago, since I really need it for working in airplane for cross country flight (my Dell D630 is still too big and last only three hours with a $400 9-cell battery). The battery last the whole flight, and it does what I need to do. My child use it when I am not traveling. She complained about missing the DVD rom. But I have heard the Samsung one has a longer battery life and cheaper. It is hard to compare, since I never use it.
 Exactly what the Doctor ordered! November 23, 2008
This little netbook is amazing! My original thought was to upgrade it to 2GB of RAM, and I may still do it, but it hasn't proven necessary; this running Office and stock analysis software. Even if the person in front of me on the plane has their seat back down, it's comfy to use. Touch typing is no problem. There's only one minor concern -- the up-arrow and the right-shift are in the wrong place, but you can remap the keyboard.
 MY FIRST LAPTOP November 9, 2008

5 stars *****---not 2**
This is my very first laptop-or netbook-or mini-laptop. I did alot of research before purchase. My needs were simple. Small enough to take along that doesen't weigh you down, but with a screen big enough to see comfortably. I was originally looking for a kimble reading device--decided a small computer would be more versatile for the same money, and it is. I was also originally looking at its smaller brother- the 7 inch screen- but then found this 10 inch big brother. Perfect for my needs and gives a whole screen shot. I have the larger 6 cell battery that doesn't really give you 7 hrs of time, more realistically 4-5. It reads e-books just like a sony or kimble, but can do everything a laptop can do as well, just a little bit bigger. Not as powerful or as fast as a big laptop, but suits my needs to pick up e-mail, surf the net, research, plays music and videos,the speaker is not bad for a little thing, but for great sound just plug in headphones. Not a loud fan. I don't even notice it and I'm bothered by ticking clocks,and sounds like that in the background. The one I have has 80 gigabytes of hard drive, bluetooth and wireless wifi which works off my husbands wireless modem and public wifi. I have had this for 2 months, and have only used less than 40 gigs of memory. You can add an external Hard drive. The only drawback is no slot for cd or dvd. You can get an external one though.
I'm very happy with my purchase. No regrets.

Size fits needs. November 2, 2008
The Asus 1000H fits my needs well. I am a fulltime student and the battery life keeps up with a full day of classes. I run "Open Office" with XP to accomplish my class work. The 1.6 GHz processor, 2 GB ram, and 80 GB laptop drive provides plenty of room with space to spare. Its connectivity with networks whether hardwired or wireless allows internet access across the campus. And it is light weight.
