    Thanks but somebody mentioned that the batteries at the ASUS online store weren't fresh and I was wondering if that was true or not?

    OK so here are 2 pics of different angles to the webcam. Anyone care to comment? Unlee the screen is straught up, my face will not show on the screen when sitting in a normal position. I believe this to be because the webcam is slightly off kilter. I'd love to know an easy way to fix it without having to send it into ASUS as I just got the thing yesterday!

    Review went up finally! Nice.

    One thing though - my A2 only came with a RAM Index of 4.8. Any ideas why this would be?

    I wouldn't worry about this since anywhere you buy will be suspect to some shelf-wear.

    Try put run WEI on overclocked mode. That should boost your score a bit. But again, I have to stress how insignificant WEI scores are and is a terrible benchmark for performance.

    Was yours in a specific overclock when you ran it? Mine was from a fresh boot when I first got it.

    If you use the Asus power4gear utility, you can select the overclock mode there. It takes your CPU to ~2.65Ghz

    Yes, I know that but I was wondering if yours was overclocked when you ran your benchmarks or if it was stock speed?

    Thanks 4 your help man.. I will contact them tomorrow as soon as posible..

    Mmmh.. from where I can download the Avast program? I tried but they wanted me to pay for it xD I thought it was free.. isnt it?
    Just to chime in here, I too have a whitish cloud when moving to the left slightly. It is only noticable on dark screens though - during normal usage I have not noticed it. I've played Left 4 Dead, UT3, UT2004, and Q3 on it as well as watched Media Player and DivX videos at full screen with various screen action and never ntoticed it. I only notice it when I check it with a black screen and am actively looking for it.
