I told him to write a review, he's up against some tough stuff:

QuoteBought this a few days ago as I wanted to replace my old, heavy Tiny laptop. The first thing yo notice is that it's SOO small. Much smaller that I thought it was going to be. The keyboard is a lot smaller than a standard size but has a nice quality feel to it. I have small fingers to it's not too much of a problem.



The default Linux install is ok but I got annoyed and have decided to install XP as it's more familiar.



:DDDDDDDDDDDD

Parent

S1xtuS 9 May 2008, 11:52

artlove 9 May 2008, 11:55

Why would anyone want to put vista on one of these bad boys? :DDDD
Parent

artlove 9 May 2008, 11:49
Because Vista is the most successful operating system on earth.

Panda 9 May 2008, 14:15
I know.

I also know you're completely off the scale with this pro-vista shit, it's nowhere near the most successful OS on Earth. I'd rather run DSL (damn small linux) full time than use Vista.

Why would anyone use it on such a small laptop, be it the EEE PC, Cloudbook or other similar, it would just be an epic fail

artlove 9 May 2008, 14:19
I know it would be an epic fail, just try to prove Vista is the best thats all, its not a argument.

Panda 9 May 2008, 14:20
Give it 10 years and I may say Vista is a nice successful OS, but for now I'd go as far as saying it's one of the worst I've used :}}}

I've got 4 in front of me at work atm and I'm really not a fan.

We introduced them as a tool for students to use if machines in libraries etc were busy.

They're pretty useless for anything other than word processing we found though.
