Everybody who gets an Eee PC has to write about it—it’s required. I don’t really have much to add to the raft of reviews, except for one small point.
I found myself wanting to print something and, based on my last experience, prepared for the ordeal of setting up a printer. I about fell out of the chair when I opened the Printer configuration and found that the Eee had already found the CUPS printer on my network and added it. Hit print and it works. Nice.
Were you able to install QGis on the eee?
I haven’t tried, but Aaron did:

Thanks Gary. Yeah, I saw that link–he apparently is using an Ubuntu variant. I’m still wrestling with the default Xandros. I may do an ubuntu install if I can’t find a working Xandros 4 repository.
