Package and Accessories
The U1F resembles the ASUS S6F with its packaging (see our article called ASUS S6F Notebook: Miniature Fellow in Leather Outfit). Inside a cardboard wrapper there is a black box with the word ASUS in the center of its top.
This packaging calls for a step by step approach. First you unfold the lid and see the notebook itself clad in a black fabric pouch with a metallic logo of the manufacturer in the bottom right corner. This pouch lacks any handle or strap and is not meant for long walks around the city, but it protects the lacquered surface against scratches well enough. Below the pouch there lies an external optical drive.
After that you can see two folds that conceal the rest of the accessories: two batteries (a 6-cell 4800mAh and a 3-cell 2400mAh one), a power adapter with LED indicator, a modem cable (RJ-45), documentation (“Quick Installation Guide? 2-year warranty certificate, a list of authorized service centers worldwide, user manual, etc), a black Bluetooth mouse in a fabric pouch with an ASUS logo and two AA batteries from Fujitsu, a sample of leather, two napkins for cleaning the LCD panel and the notebook’s surfaces, and a set of discs that includes:
- System Recovery DVD No.2030
- Driver and Utility version 1.0 (No.2021)
- Nero 7.5.13.0
- ASUS Rock Solid ?Heart Touching
The mouse is colored to match the notebook itself. It is powered by standard AA batteries included into the box. To change the batteries, you should pull the top panel back, away from the buttons.
Besides all that, the box contains an external black DVD-burner LG GSA-T10N with a USB and power cable.
There is an activity indicator, eject button and emergency eject hole on the optical drive’s face panel. The LG GSA-T10N features the following speed characteristics:
