Asus F6

By Rory Reid (cnet.co.uk)Read the full review

Asus continues its trend in crazy laptop innovation with the F6, the world's first scented computer. While its smell proved to be more of a gimmick than a local air freshener, the laptop's ultra-modern design, large storage capacity and sensible ...

Pretty design ; reasonable price

Has Centrino, not Centrino 2 architecture ; stiff mouse selector buttons ; doesn't smell enough

The F6V is a very good laptop, but don't believe the hype about the smell. Unless you're a dog, you can hardly smell anything. Thankfully, it's very good-looking, fairly quick and quite affordable. Laptops such as the Dell XPS M1330 give it a good run ...

The F6 has a capacious 320GB hard drive and a DVD rewriter drive to back up...

Asus F6V

By WL News Team (whatlaptop.co.uk)Read the full review

Asus has had a great deal of press lately, thanks to the success of its Eee PC Netbook. The F6V is equally unique, as it is the first scented laptop on the market. Thankfully, it also delivers style, performance and mobility.

The compact chassis is available in a choice of four artwork designs and colour schemes. All are great looking and bring a touch of style to the often staid laptop market. Its 2.2kg weight and 233-minute battery life provide fantastic mobility for ...

Unprecedented

By Zach (newegg.com)Read the full review

This is my first laptop, but after building a quad core rig and lots of technological experience, I am well pleased with the ratio of bang and buck. I bought it primarily as a college computer, because, as i said, i have a desktop so why get a beast of a...

Wow. Where to begin. The light weight, the perfect-for-traveling and college dimensions, no bloatware. The webcam and mic work great, although i had to recover to get the cam to work. Probably my fault. For this price you're def. getting your money's wort...

You can't boil water on it like my sister's laptop

Fast, small, and light

By aaronwt (newegg.com)Read the full review

I wish it had VISTA Ultimate and I wish it had LED backlighting and Centrino 2 technology. But for the price it was a good deal. I'm able to use it for hours on my lap without my lap getting hot like my 3 yr old laptop does.

Lightweight, small size, and a quick PC ; 64bit VISTA Premium ; easily over 3 hours of battery life ; Gigabit wired ethernet port ; Runs cool

Battery sticks out from the back making the depth close to the same as a 14.1 inch screen laptop

Centrino at a good price.

By BluZuner (newegg.com)Read the full review

1-Get a Logitech NanoVX mouse, the black and red one. It's a perfect match for this. 2-Surprise! NO CRAPWARE. None. Other than a couple of ASUS programs (wireless finder, update), there isn't ANY crapware. Other companies should be ashamed that they can't...

1-64 bit Vista2-Great location of ports. VGA out and Ethernet in ports are off the back, keeping wires under control3-Fast.4-Classy. This laptop has an understated elegance. Good in a business setting ; 5-Power cord attaches at 90 degrees, keeping the...

Keyboard a bit bland. Then again, it's slightly recessed and works fine
