The Perfect Computer for Kids

This notebook is so perfect for kids. We bought it for our 7-year-olds birthday and he LOVES it! It is different from other laptops in that you have total control of what they can access with the parental controls. You don't have to block what you...

This review is in response to my previous review regarding the bad experience with upgrading the ram to 2GB ; Pro: it worked the 2nd time ; ASUS support rocks

Still doesn't explain why the first one bricked like it did

Good hardware with many options

Overall a good product, the Disney desktop is easy for little ones to navigate

There are a limited number of games preinstalled, probably so older kids would go online and get the rest
