My Vietnamese student using the Asus Eee PC
,----[ Quote ]
| On Friday, I was so surprised to see one of my 8th Grade Students, Candy,
| using the simplified desktop with her Eee PC. She was even using StarOffice,
| the propriety version of OpenOffice, with little difficulty. Linux is
| difficult, eh? Well, I doubt she really could tell the difference between
| Windows and Linux anyway :-)

| The modified Ubuntu OS is one of it’s stronger points. It works well and
| combines the ease of use of the eee Xandros tabbed OS with the power of the
| full Ubuntu desktop. In fact, you can switch back and forth between the
| launch bar and a regular desktop via a new menu option. The launch bar has
| nice effects with zooming in on each category’s apps while bluring the
| background. It gives it a very modern and professional feel. Students who
| tested it didn’t comment at all about the UI being different (in contrast,
| they all complain about not knowing how to use the new iMacs we have).

| P.S. They all seem to like KDE4 in Intrepid. If you haven't tried KDE4, you
| really ought to give it a shot even if you're a true Gnome fan. I suspect you
| may be pleasantly surprised.
