Asus NX90SN Review

Pros:

• Best bang for the buck although not cheap,
• The looks
• The screen is wonderfully sharp,
• The speakers are much better than any other laptop I have ever seen,
• The i7 is wonderful,
• The graphics card is one of the best you can get in a laptop,
• The power this laptop packs is fantastic,
• Runs amazingly cool,
• The high speed usb ports,
• The touchpads

Cons:

• Preinstalled junk software that is not needed at all,
• Bluetooth problems that were corrected simply by first upgrading and then uninstalling the wireless/bluetooth Widcomm software (let the operating system do it!)
• DO NOT attempt to uninstall the WiFi/bluetooth software without upgrading it first, or you may lose all or part of your programs! (just google for "Widcomm uninstall wipes" and see for yourself).
• I wish the speakers were removable, so that the laptop could be easier to pack.
• Screen should have been a bit more glossy.
• I am not sure if I can unscrew the cover at the bottom of the laptop and reach for a HDD or install more ram, because I can't see any screws under the laptop!
