Ok thanks. I guess I'm going to have to rethink that one then. I will definitely look into the Asus. Has it been a good computer for you Jarvis?
Overall so far has been good. Usually before I make a purchase I will check out the reviews on newegg or a similar site to get a feel for the product I am thinking of picking up.
The two major negative comments were trouble turning the machine on, and there was supposedly a BIOS update to correct that. Mine to date has not experienced that issue.
The other is the clicking portion of the mouse is very stiff. This I have experienced on mine. It is not a deal breaker but at times annoying. The T100 does have bluetooth and I am thinking about picking up a BT mouse for it.
Another minor negative it is a fingerprint magnet, but I don't really care about that myself.
It charges by a mini usb cable and does take some time to fully charge, but the battery life has been excellent so far.
The Pico is powered by usb so it does drain the battery a little faster, but has not been a big issue unless the battery is getting low.
The only other negative, and it is more of a personal preference is it is Windows 8.1, I prefer Windows 7. Unfortunately the majority of computers are Win 8 now.
If you do pick one up or a similar machine I would suggest getting a good solid clipboard. This is handy to set the computer on when under a hood or something of that sort.
Two things I forgot to mention form factor with the 10" screen is very good and handy using under hoods or in cabins. It does suffer from the same glare issue most PC's have in sunlight.
