Comes with wireless keyboard and mouse.

4K playback is jittery.

If you know someone who just wants a small and stylish device for emailing, typing documents and streaming videos, this ASUS Chromebox 2-G084U would make a great gift.

Great Computer

Yes

Speed to start, seconds. Great video...no slowing. No issues with updates. No worries with virus. Works with lots of webbed software on google webstore. Lots of connections, small footprint. Nice compact keyboard and mouse

Some Microsoft software doesn't work. Would like skype to work, but it does have hangouts which works well.

Great little PC but not for beginners

Specs say max 256GB SSD but I have a 500GB SSD in mine and it sees it all. I'll try a 1TB when I can. Overall, this is a great little PC for all who are not engineers or hard-core gamers. Honestly, I don't know why anyone else would by anything else -...

Very small and compact Dead silent Plenty fast enough for non-engineering or less-than-hard-core gaming VESA mount is great; this thing is out of site and out of mind on the back of my monitor.

No driver disk included; I had to download all the drivers required from the Internet. Some of the drivers downloaded from Asus specifically for this model did not work so I had to also get drivers from Realtek, Intel, and even Dell to clear all errors...

ASUS UN62-M037M

This is a great little machine. I have it configured with 16G of ram and 1T drive. I am running Ubuntu 14. The machine is used for Android development, which means lots of disk IO and memory usage (the Java VM needs to go on a diet). For the price you...

Fast. Silent. Virtually not setup time.

None.

WARNING - Display Port is not pass 4K!!!

Form factor and quiet fan, but that’s about all.

Bought and returned one after another, totaling 3. Yes, all 3 units!!!!. I even sent one of the units free of charge to ASUS for repair. They replaced the motherboard, which was easy to spot due to them leaving the battery connected but not secured so...

Took a little bit to get running

Windows struggled but Linux worked like a charm. It is usually the other way around.

Small and quiet. Plays well with my 4k monitor on both HDMI and Display port

I had a bit of a hard time with Windows 8.1. The network didn't work right away. I pulled a wireless card from an old laptop, got online and the updates fixed the network
