[Discuss] Asus eee

[Chris Hennessy]

It does everything that I want it to.  I will mostly being ssh'ing into work
computers anyways.  One of the things that other people have said about it,
"It is powerful enough to do work, but not enough to play games like WoW
:)  That being said, I have heard reports of Compiz running on it.

Battery life.. I wonder how much that varies with wireless turned on?

Well since I didn't get the shipping notice from NCIX tonight, I will be
getting it on Monday....
