Review: My female friend, now attending her medical doctor studies, is very satisfied with her W5. Un-Indonesia, the model is only 256 Mb and DVD-Combo. However, I still have a high speed computing in it. Yes, 3D is impossible, since it only uses 8Mb shared memory, but the LifeFrame software included in the package makes it looks more like a friendly multimedia pack, for recording videos(with 80 Gb, nothing to complain), getting pictures, and transferring it via Bluetooth. The wireless mouse integrated from Logitech, integrated Bluetooth, MMC&Memory Stick included, WinXP SP2, great software from Asus and NIS 2005, really great bonus. I really recommend it for anyone who doesn’t require 3d and a large screen. However, there's a problem with the NIS sometimes, with it blocking your internet access. And don't try to tweak the msconfig, it slows down the boot-up and disables the camera.
