Bumping up this thread and my trusty old Asus eeepc is dying and I need a new laptop before I return to the Middle Kingdom. I really would like a new Asus since I was happy with them.Most important considerations - 1.weight (can't carry anything heavy as I am only a very small creature) 2.space 3.not complicated don't care for a lot of bells /whistles 4.will run Chrome well - I heard there is some horrid version of Windows (RT?) that doesn't allow one to install said browser. 5.Of course not horribly expensive after all I am a retired teacher (nuff said) thanks in advance all.
