For the last month, our intrepid Asus bloggers have been crash testing their laptops in-depth, looking at everything from movie playback to using an ultra portable as a desktop replacement. Come Monday, and it’ll be time to vote for your favourite poster, so check out the best from each and every blogger right here in our final roundup.
Johan Sibesma has spent this week using his entertainment-focused Asus N50 as a desktop replacement to try and get some work done, and while the lack of a docking port was a bit of a downer, he still found it held up well parked on an office table.
Emma Hill has taken to the only non-laptop in our test, the Eee Top 1602. While the all-in-one PC is nothing new, Asus has been making it even friendlier with touchscreen functionality built in. Not only has Emma penned her thoughts on the digit controlled display though – she’s taken some video to show everyone too!
Gavyn Britton‘s been blessed with the Asus G71v beast of a gaming laptop, and to round off his tests, he’s been doing a bit of price comparison. How does the red machine fare against other gaming laptops? And is the extra portability over a desktop gaming rig worth the extra cost? Find out here what he has to say.
Mark Dumpleton meanwhile has been blogging about the Asus N80Vc laptop for business users, and this week he answered an important question for any budding exec: just what ports does the N80Vc have? Will it hot desk? Mark has the answers.
The netbook natterer of our bloggers, John Scholes, answered a burning question recently for would-be buyers of the 10-inch laptop. What’s it like to really use Linux? Can a layman install it? And would he want to?
Finally, Lauren Brown has spent the last week trying to watch Family Guy non-stop on the Asus Bamboo U6. Can it survive the wear and tear of stop start playback and sudden lid closures?
Remember, voting takes place on Monday so check back then to tell us who your favourite Asus Blogger is!
