Review: Mythic's - Asus M6BNE Review - Page 5

I'm looking at getting this laptop...I'm just dissapointed with the styling a bit. I HATE when laptop companies have the top part of the laptop jut out then the rest slope back. It makes it look like it'll break if i touch the jutting parts...Wish asus had made it more boxyish. Oh well, If i get it, i'll let everyone know

I just go a m6ne a few days ago, it's not too bad. But i would have to say the thing creaks alot on the right side above the optical bay housing. I thought i would be a little more solid. But hey, the keyboard feels nice, looks good, no dead pixels, and the screen backing is superb, can't make the screen blush at all. For the most part happy about getting it, just thought it wouldn't creak so much, if you grab the bottom corner and twist lightly, you can hear it. But i guess most notebook will creak a bit.

Is this a true widescreen? Running it on 1280 x 768 in normal mode, the screen image is crisp,clear with good contrast. Down side is its 33cm (diagonal) image sitting in the middle of a 39 cm screen.

The only way I can find to enable widescreen is via the displays tab for the radeon 9100. Enabling scale image to panel size gives me an interpolated mush of squashed proportions ,poor type and crap contrast.
Is this is good as it gets? Looking at other wide screen laptops in the store today dont have the same problem. Their display is correctly proportioned, crisp and clear. This is the ATI Radeon 9100 128Mb ram in the M6...

Anyone help before i return it.......?
The rez is 1280 x 800. There is some setting that is wrong in display properties. Check that you have the right display drivers installed also. <-important

wow ressurection of a thread
nice i've got one too, and i think your review helped in that decision
i'm sure you've tried all the undervolting stuff here, udapted you intel proset drivers for your wireless as there are new ones out
but yeah great laptop
i can see this thing lasting me a long time (well until i need to upgrade, but i don't see that happening anytime soon)
but one time that i guess happens to everyone is the keyboard wear
it's starting to look old.. hahaha hate that
