Please tell me what are the pros and cons of this laptop.
I am looking forward on spending no more than $1,000 on a laptop in very near future;
Thank you.

ASUS is the perfect brand. Got three in the house here at home, and they are the best I have had and seen so far. The perfect manufactor.
Price is actually great, $900 is pretty cheap for such specifications, and I personally love the design and keyboard comfort of ASUS' products. The processor is good enough as it has 4 cores. For that price, it's pretty decent. Nothing to complain about when it comes to the graphic card. The webcam isn't that good, but that doesn't matter to most people... Also, what it is missing is a USB 3.0 port, that's always good to have, but you might not find it important... 2.6 KG - Neither a pro or con for a 15,6" with such specs.... HDD and RAM are good enough to run pretty much everything you need these days...
Hope this could help :).

Thanks! :)

Found out that it got released in June 27, 2011, and that the price is actually pretty cheap. Other sites have it for sale for about the same price, but with half amount the RAM, so 4GB, 640GB HDD and Intel i5.. Checked some reviews about the graphic card as well, seems like it is able to run every game on the market along with a good processor, which you've got there :).
I can't see any reason why not to buy it if you are looking forward to a new laptop.
Glad I could help :).

What about display size con?
This will run GTA 4 and black ops right?

Well, I think for a price like that you can get at least a 17'' screen. 15,6'' is just really small.. For me it's a con, it doesn't have to be for you :P
And yes I think it'll run GTA 4.. But you gotta be picky with the GPU, if you want to run GTA IV.. On my PC I have an ATI Radeon HD 5450 Noiseless Edition - 1GB and it has trouble running GTA IV, just saying.
