My intention was to delete Windows and use Jolicloud OS but in Jolicloud there were issues with the wifi radio going on and off. The Asus is optimized for the Windows 7 that comes on it. If you don't mind Windows 7, this netbook is very good. The trackpad's button is stiff but you can double tap the pad instead. Battery life is excellent.
I only use it for the Chrome browser and cloud computing and so I have no data stored on it and did not even install the virus software. I spend as little time in Windows as I can and just use it to get to Chrome as fast as I can, that is when the Windows updates, dialog boxes and invitations to install and/or buy virus protection will let me work.
