The only time I have had to deal with Asus warranty service was for a
motherboard. I found them pleasant, and professional but in the end
not very helpful. The problem that I crossed paths with was a BIOS bug
(yes, they do exist, and I crossed paths with a BIOS bug that would
not impact 99.9%+ of users, but made the motherboard useless for my
intended purpose...).
