asus eee pc

just been looking at them they look quite interesting, im thinking of getting one and putting mint on it.
anyone got one|?|

anyone?

Nice idea ...... but worth hanging on for the 8gb version <me thinks> ........ there are rumours it will have a 10" screen

the 8gig one is out i saw it for sale... i think

Yeah .... I saw that, but it still has the 7" display, which is a little too small for most websites to display properly. Otherwise it would be a great little machine. There seems to be plenty of room in the lid, for a 10" panel ..... cant think why they would ship it with a 7".

It seems they are holding off with the 10" displays .... maybe they got a lot of 7" ones to get rid off first

apparently the 10" one will be near 400 pound

i had no idea these existed if im perfectly honest.

cheers for the insight cew, future purchase i feel!

Hopefully it wont be that much ..... they will have to pitch it right, so as it is still attractive and cheaper than the low end Laptops.

I got to say those little laptops are pretty dang sweet. I agree tiny little screen. But who doesn't want something that is ultra portable so that when you are on the road and stop in a nice wifi area you can go check out new posts on CJ. :)

indeed me thinks ill get one in march and stick a better linux on it

i knew that was coming

indeed you need you closed minded fool
the xandros one just isnt customisable enough for me and there's no compiz

Hi Guys

Ive got windows xp pro installed on my 2gb White eee with a 8gb SD

XP has been cut down to 680mb with the drivers embedded, also all my folders and targets are pointed to the 8gb sd

Runs a treat for day to day use, only problem with the 2gb is that the 512 ram in onboard

But i am running citrix on it for the work enviroment such as outlook and word and so on

cannot fault it in anyway shape or form

How are you finding the 7" display with websites ?
