but i didnt really sure. bcause he work there, and i think he not objective. and i didnt know much bout the spec i need. should i buy it? or change to other netbook?

plz help
 
Personally, I like this one better: Acer-AO722-0473 11-6-Inch Netbook. I bought one recently and really like it.

The Acer comes with 2G of RAM, expandable to 4G and 64-bit Win 7, the ASUS comes with 1G RAM, expandable to 2G and comes with 32-bit Win 7. I like the keyboard on the Acer over the ASUS keyboard which seems flimsy to me.

I love Asus , and dont like Acer but the netbook strollin posted does have dedicated video memory and did not see anything in the asus specs
 
The Acer that I posted the link to above isn't slow, it has 64-bit OS and 4G RAM. It blurs the line between netbook and small laptop.

From my understanding open office is not really developed anymore being that Oracle is putting most of it's efforts in Java right now. Libre Office is the one currently seeing the most love from the community and from what I read Libre Office is going to be recieving a huge GUI remake, which is well over due.
