This computer is so powerful and so quiet. It is the quietest computer I have ever owned. The graphics are fantastic. I can finally play SimCity on full graphics and it runs with ease. It is also my home office computer with plenty of computing power and speed to have multiple website windows open while streaming music, wirelessly printing, and running spreadsheets at the same time. I've had it for about three weeks now and couldn't be happier with it. This is my first ASUS computer.

I was offered this mouse by a Best Buy manager in good faith because the one I ordered online to pick up in store could not be found in the store. This one was much more expensive than the one I initially ordered, so I figured I'd try it out at such a discounted price. Well, turns out I hate it. It is sculpted for an ergonomic fit to your hand, except it doesn't fit well. In order for it to be comfortable, my hand (average size male) has to fully encapsulate the mouse. The problem then becomes that the scroll wheel is set too far back to use. I have to keep my hand slid way back on the mouse, making it ergonomically incorrect. A second issue is with the wi-fi. I have an ASUS dual band AC gigabit router, which is pretty high quality. When I print wirelessly though, the mouse gets really jumpy and erratic. Finally, the batteries are rechargeable and drain super fast, which means I have to plug in the mouse via usb to the computer to recharge; basically turning it into a wired mouse. The usb cord is too short, so it makes it hard to charge and use at the same time. I will be passing this mouse off to my kids and will try out the one I initially was going to buy, the bluetooth Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Wireless Mouse.

I have this set up in my home office. I get good wireless speeds on my office laptop, but the PS3 wireless speeds in another room are not very good. Traveling in a straight line, the PS3 is about 30 feet from the router, but there are walls in between. My WD MyNet AC1300 died after a year so I got this to replace it. Hopefully it will last longer. It does seem to cause interference in my nearby desktop speakers, which no other router I've ever owned has done.

This would make an excellent laptop for a college student, but may be something that someone might want to steal on campus so beware. The only negative is that it's not a touchscreen. If that doesn't bother you, then I would recommend it.
