So ASUS payed you for advertisement and ACER didn't? This comparison is funny: "When powered from the mains, the ASUS notebook is a little slower than its opponent", LOL

ASUS ACER
1500 2900
590 1390
212 763
223 470
127 150

Based on other results this last one is almost 100% error (or intentional error). I dont know why is 100% slower called "a little slower". We all know that Intel IGP is garbage, and if they payed you, you should say: It has integrated graphics which is usable for this kind of laptop. (Which is also questionable :), because this crap will be slow even in 2D programs like Painter and Photoshop because of its fill rate. Those kinds of programs are very often used on tablets)

Also being slower in battery mode is actualy plus for ACER because main concern there is power consuption, not performance.

Not that I have anything agains ASUS, and I dont own any of these brands, but this "a little slower" was too much...

This is a good technical review, but it misses the major issue with the Asus R1F - a battery system that has serious issues. If you buy one of these and rely on the battery to a reasonable extent, you can expect to wear out your battery within months.

This is well documented in user forums. Check out http://forum.tabletpcreview.com/showthread.php?p=56227 for instance.

I'm very satisfied with the performance of this system, but Asus has been unresponsive to customer complaints about a defective battery system.

BorgDrone is right.
This article makes me remember a previous one, not a long time ago, about the gigabyte 965pdq6 motherboard. Both biased. I used to rely a lot on the X-bit labs. Looks like something is changing inhouse.

I'm gonna second the question about how much you were paid for this BS review. I wonder was it as much as I did for this disgrace of a laptop. The simple fact of the matter is Asus have produced a product which is intended to be and sold to consumers to be used on battery power. The design is faluty and they have refused to admit it. They have conned their loyal customers out of thousands on dollars/euro in producing and selling a product known to have a latent defect. And you are helping deceive the public in producing this review. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Oh and if you live in Europe as I do god help you if you ever have to deal with this company. A laptop reported faulty on the 21/04/07 still remains to be repaired 2 and a half months later. Expect similar treatment if you buy this product.

Asus really sucks, bad service, bad RMA, I dont know

i feel like i want to piss

If you need a new laptop battery, I suggest you could puechase one from http://www.batteryfast.com , which would shipping to yu fast and the quality is satisfy satisfied.:)
