Introduction
This laptop I already had two years to use and now I'm've sold, I'll think about writing a review. At the time I (now filed for bankruptcy) at laptops4u.nl bought for 1100 euros, an offer was .. . because my budget was higher than the offer I have the slow 250GB (?) replaced with a 120GB 7200 rpm hard drive hard drive. This was because I needed so much internal storage, but still wanted faster than the 5400rpm. When I went to downgrade my desktop, then go to this laptop, I was aware that not so much for gaming was here with my gaming desktop. However, games in this period were high priority for me and let me decide that I would buy. Such laptop At least with a decent graphics card, plenty of memory, and still prefer a good number gigahertzen. Entry / general impression box was at all impressive for me. A large box containing the laptop, manuals, mouse, backpack and music CDs. After further detail to have viewed the laptop it once was time to start. The animal on the first time I was scared 3x vapid. This is because the boat noise of this laptop is really terrible. (So do Windows, but the bios) It seems that the laptop always explodes when it turned After awhile our friend Google looked to have had this explosion quickly extinguished http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yzr8XVbiEkY Behold the bootup sound, and remember that you hang .. the laptop to a decent 5.1 set Anyway, after a week, the laptop used to have, there was already a quick copy of Windows XP on it. Not that had something to do with this laptop, but Vista is / was / continues to really whine. Not only performance, but also all the installed stuff that was on it. (Poor out-of-the-box experience) This review and performances are also included from XP. Featureset As already mentioned was the unnecessary pre-installed software really worthless . Was it to do, nothing much startups and took a lot of space. Hup away with it so. XP on it and let's go ... I thought ... Indeed, it is quite a struggle to get here. XP First the drivers using a. Iso geslipstreamed should be in the installation CD of XP. All in all, not so much work, but it still took me two days to find out. The laptop also has a while on Linux, but was not quite get it (personal opinion). myself have the hardware, so some expanded by putting in a fast hard drive and I then chose a resolution of 1680x1050 on a 15.5'' screen, which was really a big plus. Super sharp. Moreover, there are some 'normal' things like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, CD / DVD burner, 4x USB 2.0 ports, HDMI (which certainly was a reason to buy this laptop), eSata, 1.3MP webcam, etc. Performance / / For a laptop were considered, the performance is good for a general computer enough. Games were fine to play after the quality was screwed down slightly (from high to medium approx). , the 8600M GT is still ahead so fine, as long as there are not too high demands on detail. What benchmarks 3D Mark01 27609 points 3D Mark03 12846 points 3D Mark05 7900 points 3D Mark06 4103 points Indeed, it is not too good, but bad is another story. Picture Quality Again, the resolution of 1680x1050 was a real pleasure. Plenty of workspace, sharp images / games / movies and such. HDMI also displayed correctly on a 42'' Philips Ambilight. 1080 ... movies ... During my test screen took a maximum brightness of 195.0 cd/m2 in the middle at the bottom. With regard to the average brightness, the screen is good with 165.3 cd/m2. The illumination is only 67.3%, because the brightness is reduced at the upper corners. The screen is glossy, which I had chosen at the time (on purpose). This results in that it is practically impossible to work out unfortunately. Build quality and robustness design and workmanship of the Asus G1 is good. The housing has a high bending stiffness, and it can have some impact, though, if you use a lot of power, you can hear some cracking, but during normal use you nothing of hearing. exterior of the housing consists mainly of plastic. The mat is sprayed with a pair of smooth, reflective spots (eg protective of the screen and the hand support) partially transparent. There is also metal used in some places, such as the screws on the front, and the touch pad (aluminum). Least firm, though solid enough, the guard for the display.

The screen can be tilted without you there to have to put. unnecessary force good Unfortunately, the screen wobbles though, even if you do close the notebook screen wobbles a bit, while it is stuck with 2 hooks over.

Nice, but really really a shame that an OS affect that, Maarja. The touch pad feels the same as protecting the screen and the hand support and sliding properties are good to very good.
