Finally the wait is over for me... I got my new white Asus Eee PC delivered this morning. If you are reading this; you will have read loads of shining reviews about this little wonder, so I won't bore you with another one. Suffice to say I LOVE it. However, while I was waiting for this unit to arrive; I was quite frustrated at the lack of images out there showing the actual scale of this machine. So here you go:
I'm writing this on the Eee and am already used to the scale of the keyboard. Linux really does boot in about 15-20 seconds and the interface is really easy to use, so as well as geeks like myself who will no doubt have the thing in bits (metaphorically) within five minutes; this would make a great homework PC for the kids.
I think 2008 is going to be a truly great year for Linux!

Hello from "vidas en red",
what about the noise? May you tell us something about this?
Thanks a lots
Hi,
Thanks for you comment.
The machine is silent, and when the fan is running you can only _just_ hear it. Very good.
Cheers,
Tris
Hi, are you going to do any C# ASP.NET development on it? I'd be very interested to hear how that goes, or even if it's possible. Cheers.
C# development would be possible using Mono, available in the Debian apt repos. However I probably wont be doing this on my eee.
