Conclusion
Asus T91MT is an incredibly fancy computer, with an unbelievable size and clever functions that can impress anyone. The multi-touch display is not something you usually see on such a small computer for such a small price, so that is quite innovative. The craftsmanship is generally great, and the product is quite good overall.
However, once you delve deeper into the device, you will find that there are certain issues. The hardware is generally easy on the battery, but that comes at the expense of performance. Windows generally runs very slowly, and many programs stutter/lag. The only piece of hardware that outweighs this a little is the SSD, but it is sort of unnecessary with this kind of configuration. It does make the computer silent and more shock-proof, though.
The touch-aspect of the device is a handy feature, but just how useful it actually is in the long run is questionable. It is fine if you want to sketch, draw, illustrate and navigate on the computer, but since the programs just do not run as well they should, you do not get the feeling of everything falling into place as hoped.
In the aggregate, I see this device of more as a gadget since it has some clever show-off features, but whether it is a suitable as a workstation is debateable. It has both advantages and disadvantages that one must consider before buying.
