Laptop works well. Biggest problem is the keyboard and the fact that the trackpad likes to jump you all over the place. Not sure if that is a personal problem or if it is common. My battery is completely dead after 1 year. Asus is replacing but I am not happy that it will probably burn out again after a year.

***** Warranty Bait and Switch ***********
ASUS no longer offers the overnight shipping on RMA's. Amazon needs to update the description. I felt very burned by this.

Here is what ASUS Says:

ASUS RMA -Gustavo> Ok i see yes that is an old program we now onluy do Fedex express saver
ASUS RMA -Gustavo> and a one year battery warranty
Ralph> But you cannot change the terms of my warranty after I bought it can you
ASUS RMA -Gustavo> No, because some of our resellers hold units passed 6 months some times a year and usually they would let you know whats the warranty on the unit but its always best to look threw our website first

I bought this off [...] and I'm very satisfied with it.
The battery life is about 3 to 3.5 hours using the built-in battery saving mode with wifi on.
It can handle most video games on decent settings, but don't expect to play Crysis on anything above low settings.
The build quality is very nice, even though the touchpad could be improved; but I use a bluetooth mouse with it so it doesn't bother me much.
The speakers sound pretty well.

The Windows Performance Rating for this laptop is:

Processor - 6.2
Memory - 6.2
Graphics - 5.2
Gaming Graphics - 6.2
Primary hard disk - 5.9

A Kid's Review

This review is from: ASUS N61VG-A2 16-Inch Brown Versatile Entertainment Laptop (Windows 7 Home Premium) (Personal Computers)

I got this laptop for a good price on B n H (750). Couldn't be more satisfied with this laptop. The keyboard feels comfortable with a nice palm rest. I used HP dv6871us before and i didn't need to turn my ac on during the winter!!! but this one runs quiet and cool... the processor is good enough for most of the programs that's out there in the market... and games... but don't expect to run every game in high end settings!!! NO!!! The video acceleration was good enough to play blu ray ripped files without delay and congruent audio/video.!!!! All in all I would recommend this laptop.... asus is the best when it comes to quality assurance for customers....
