I lost my receipt so I couldn't use the warranty. Good to know that yours lasted that long, I might consider them again in the future. To be honest I was black listing them.

Oh wow! That's horrible!
My netbook has a solid state drive which is meant to make it more durable. Relying on that, I would have FLIPPED out if it died the way yours did!
A bunch of 10" EEE PCs were also used at my last place of employment. They were supposed to be toted around for people to use during negotiations, but a lot of my co-workers would use it to put their TiVo'd shows and movies on and watched it on their commutes to and from work. haha!
Ditto. Typing this response on my Asus EEE Netbook, which I love. So, DH got one after me for light home use, but it died, and so it went to DS who resurrected it with a new hard drive. DH is happily using his new iPad now, instead.vc10um|1315096569|3009362 said:I have a 12" Asus EEE Netbook and I LOVE it. I purchased it in 2009 and so far have had no issues. **knock on wood**
