I’m typing this on an Asus EEE PC 4G with Xandros Linux.
Truly a neat little machine (I have two of 'em). The Xandros OS boots in about 20 seconds, and shuts down in under 10. I have one of mine set up to shut down when I close the lid, so if I'm somewhere browsing the web, I can just slam the lid down, throw it in my backpack (don't have to worry about the solid state drive crashing!), and be on my way in no time. When I boot it up again, the Firefox web browser opens to where it was when I slammed the lid! A great portable device!
