best ASUS full size laptops

The thing about college is I can't expect what I will need for a laptop, so I wanted good processing, graphics, and ram.

The Blu-Ray drive does play Blu-Rays but you still have to purchase software to actually play the Blu-Rays.

USB 3.0 - This is pretty recent technology, and although I don't have anything that uses USB 3.0 right now, it is a nice feature to have for the future.

Ram: I have not upgraded to the 8GB of ram yet but running just 4GB right now its alright but there is usually only 1GB of free ram for me.

What's great about it: Fast, good size, long battery life.

ASUS has not made it very easy to upgrade the RAM.

hard drive benchmarks not anywhere near what was reviewed.

Screen resolution: 1920 x 1080!! Most laptops try to shortchange you today with 768 pixels high, not enough for Word docs and the like.

I suggest swapping the cheap Hynix 2GB RAM chip and getting the Kingston Valu-RAM 4GB 1333MHz chip instead though.
