An opportunity for linux

I agree, you can't on the one hand hail the Eee as a success and then turn around and say people have had a hard time adopting to a linux system..
Until Microsoft comes up with a distraction, this is an opportunity for Linux to get wider exposure, I hope linux developers are ready to take it!

Put simply, what is the compelling reason to pay ~$200 extra for an Eee with Windows XP? A Windows Eee won't come with any useful applications and you'll have to buy anti-virus software to boot. The truth about low cost computing is that nobody really cares whether the machine is running Windows or Linux as long as its cheap, its easy to use and it works.
