Absolute tanks. Mine fell from the roof of my car onto a freeway on- ramp at ~20 MPH and came out with no worse than a lightly-cracked and heavily-scuffed case, lasted another ~8 yrs. before succumbing to a board failure. Bought another used, which has been chugging along ever since, though it's in need of a replacement PSU jack and battery ATM. Nobody but *nobody* solved the laptop-hinge problem like Asus did on those first couple Eee generations. Oneathesedays, maybe when this one gives up the ghost, I oughta figure out how to rip out the guts and stuff a little ARM SBC in there...
