Thanks shurcooL. That’s what I figured the authors here are trying to convey. For me, it’s like fingernails on a chalkboard to read it that way though. Maybe a touch of grammatical OCD? Who knows…

JZ, replace ‘Asus’ with ‘they’ and you will see why it works.

Probably because it ends with an “s”, people read it like “asu’s”.

Why is “Asus” always used as a plural business name, as in the following quote from the article:
“Asus already have a support page available…”

Isn’t “Asus” a singular business entity? If so, shouldn’t it read “Asus already HAS a support page available…”

I’m assuming there is a reason for this, because I see it everywhere on this site. I just don’t know what that reason is.

Awesome! I’m really looking forward to this, and there’s a very good chance I’ll buy it if it’s not too overly expensive.

I’ve been holding back off the T91 because I feel a netbook/tablet like this really needs multitouch to be usable in tablet mode.

I hope it’ll be possible to surf the net by single-tapping links and using two fingers to scroll pages or something (i.e. not by using the scrollbars, ugh).

[...] Asus actualizará su T91 al modelo T91MT, el mismo netbook pero con una pantalla multitáctil aprovechando que en octubre llega Windows 7 (que incluye soporte para este tipo de pantallas). No se conocen detalles de más cambios internos, pero podemos esperar que exista alguna actualización de disco duro o RAM. [...]
