I usually love ASUS as they have dared to try unconventional ideas, like the eeePC. I also like how they make everything from MoBos to TVs and phones. But it felt like they wanted to brick the Transformer for some reason.
Personally I have a couple of Samsung tablets, they serve a purpose when I want have a "TV" on in the background in a random place in the house I also read some comics that comes as pdfs on it
I actually generally like Asus as well, I pretty much use them exclusively for my motherboards, despite my disappointment with their pricing schemes the past few years. I also have a set of their pro art monitors from a while back still going strong. I will say the recent horror stories of their customer service for pc parts has me a bit concerned but I have been lucky and have never had an issue with their stuff yet. Never tried a video card from them though.
As for tablets in general, reading comics in bed is one of the only things that makes me want to try a tablet again. However, whenever I remember that transformer it just re-ignites my hatred. ๐ One day my rage might subside but until then I'm done with tablets. I've actually considered my next phone to be a folding one to see if that can get the job done for reading comics in bed with the bigger screen.
