Easy Peasy Eeebuntu Netbooks

| Recently I purchased an eeepc 1000H and was quite impressed with the new and 
| different operating system. I hail from a windows only background and 
| anything apart from the Microsoft offerings I have left well alone, until 
| NOW. The eee came with something called xandros installed and although fairly 
| basic it did give me a taste of linux and I wanted more.

_EeeBuntu made my wife happy_

,----[ Quote ]
| My wife bought an eeePc 701/4G earlier this year.
| 
| I was checking all the Windows machines for MS and anti-virus updates.
| When I turned on her eeePC it gave a low disk warning. I tried cleaning
| everything off the computer that she didn't need; however, I couldn't
| get enough free disk space to update Windows. After I had plaid with it
| for an hour or so, my wife told me she didn't use it anymore because it
| was too slow. She told me I should install Linux on it </shock>.
| 
| I installed the EeeBuntu remix on it. She has been using it for the past
| 2 days. It runs pretty well when the CPU isn't supporting an anti-virus
| program as well as the OS. It has all the applications she needs, and
| still has 1 GB of SSD left for more of them.
| 
| It's the remix of Ubuntu 8.10.
| 
| When she is happy, I am happy.
| 
| Edit: I'm not complaining about Windows. It was just the wrong OS for my
| wife's needs.
