This is the new version 64GB Transformer Book T100HA that is powered by the latest Cherry trail quad-core Intel® Atom™ processor that intel claim is twice as fast as previous generations.
It also has the new USB 3.1 Type-C port as well as the older more common type of USB.
At just 8.45mm thin, the T100HA is 20% thinner than previous editions. Weighing just 580g.
Even when the keyboard is attached, it is a very slender 16.5mm thickness and just under 1kg, so you'll never have an excuse to leave it at home.

Windows 10 runs extremely well on 2gb ram, you obviously haven't tried it.
The linx 7" and 8" only have 1gb ram and most people are surprised at how good they run.

This is the cheapest 64GB version I could find on the internet, everywhere else seems to be £279.99 plus it comes with a 2 year guarantee.

I'd recommend a minimum of 4gb ram on a windows machine, especially if installing a 64 bit operating system which uses up more memory for each byte stored.

I'd second this, 2GB is OK if you only do one or two things at once, e.g. web and word processing, but as soon as you have a lot of tabs open or a second memory hungry program it will begin to stall.
Of course you won't be able to get more than 2GB without going to a core-i based machine which is a lot more expensive.

2gb is perfectly adequate on this machine.

DO NOT BUY..... I just bought it. Really happy with it. But too expensive in UK. You can order 4gb ram 128gb from amazon.fr for 270 pound..

That's wrong?

with windows 10 it does not much. I installed office, and some apps so I do not remember how much was initial as I have 128gb. Not much to worry about the storage...
I wish they did charge from USB C rather than micro usb which will make it faster to charge.
Only downside is AZERTY keyboard but I do not look while writing therefore does not matter.
But definitely you will need 4gb ram if you want multitasking easily. I can run autocad LT on it with any issue. So I am happy with performance..
