rson451 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Offtopic, but how do you like that netbook?I am seriously considering an ASUS eee 901-ish in the very near future. I've got a Lenovo S10 and I absolutely love it aside from the fact that FN and right CTRL are in the wrong place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney T. Administrators Posted February 9, 2009 Author Administrators Share Posted February 9, 2009 Offtopic, but how do you like that netbook?I am seriously considering an ASUS eee 901-ish in the very near future. Hey Mark! Before you settle in on the ASUS eee 901, I would seriously look at this. It is sleek, easy to operate, 3/4 size keyboard and very light. I installed Ubuntu as a dual boot with Windows XP and it works great. I posted my experiences with it here: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=725144 and my experiences and tutorials that I used when installing Ubuntu: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...#entry590547412 I couldn't be more satisfied with it for a lightweight, easy traveling netbook.
