    This Asus Vivobook Laptop has almost all the features that I want and need. Very fast. Good storage. It does lack a DVD drive, but I bought an external one and that is sufficient. Except for that missing feature, I really like this Asus Laptop.

    I purchased this product because it was compatible with both Windows and Mac. I have both; it’s fine with Windows but is not compatible with Mac. I ended up purchasing a drive from the Apple Store.
