It's there on my laptop.
Basically it allows you to boot up to a custom OS within 5 seconds.
It has the following options:
- Web browser (custom version of Firefox)
- Music player
- Online games
- IM client (Pidgin)
- Skype
You can use photos/music off the HDD or a USB drive

I can't take screen shots because there is no screen capture utility and anyways it doesn't let you save files while in Express Gate.

I had it at first. Good to see if there is any virus in USB. But I now have RAID. ExpressGate doesn't support RAID. It also slows down booting by waiting for your response. If you have a very sensitive mouse which might move due to vibrations. Its even worse.

I am downloading ExpressGate latest version. Will have to try. Its a huge download! 585MB from the Asus website. Will try it out soon. Its a mystery to me as well!
