ASUS Eee PC with XP
Article from ZDNet Australia - the news that ASUS is to sell it's Eee PC with Windows XP. The first time I saw one of these it was being used in a seminar to run 'powerpoint' style presentations and the presenter gave a really compelling demonstration on just how good low cost hardware bundled with open source software can be.
While I use Linux at home it is still not popular with my children as they do not use it at school. The school uses XP and an older version of Office. This year however we have to get serious at home in providing a good computer for the kids. Perhaps something like the Eee with XP is the answer - and it looks pretty cool too.
