I’ll be one of the cool kids
I ordered me an EeePC and it should be here tomorrow. Ten plus hours of battery life, real portable. Should be a handy blogging tool.

You’ll love it! Which model did you buy?

The one I linked. 1000HA

You linked to the 1005-hap not the 1000ha. I have a black 1005-hap, it’s a great netbook. The keyboard layout is excellent for people with normal hands. I like the touchpad although my wife hates it. I’ve gone for a week without charging while using it casually.
If you haven’t been too eeeuser.com, I highly recommend it. Among other things, the people on the forums do things like check out what effect new BIOS versions have on the Eees (703 is great, everything after that tends to make Win7 rc2 wig out a bit).

I have had one of the itty-bitty original ones since 2007. Works great. Boots in seconds and you can watch movies on it even on a transatlantic flight on a single charge. Really great for travel.

That’s the one we got (1000HA) too – we watched a movie on it, flying to Hawaii where it held my pictures and movies taken during the trip. I didn’t bring it to GBR ‘cuz that would be like work. 😉

Woohoo, another kool-aid drinker! 🙂
Only reason I wasn’t using my 1000HA at GBR was I didn’t have a room at the ‘Legacy, and didn’t want to pay for wifi.
I love this thing.

Winblows or Linux? I have been really wanting one of those.

Trust me: you’ll really enjoy that. Good deal.
