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
- 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!
