Even better than expected

Boots in no time. No crashes. Quite quiet. Tolerable battery life time. Weighs next to nothing.

Very satisfied

The Eee Pc is an amazing machine. I did not have problems with the keyboard, as this is one of the problems that people talk more about: since I am a woman, I guess my fingers are smaller and they work well with the small keyboard. The OS is amazing. I only had difficulties to make it work with other languages (ie. Portuguese and Spanish) but after some Google search it is working perfectly well. I wish the battery was longer, though, and that it had 3G, so if you have time, maybe it is a good idea to wait for the next generation.

Asus EEE PC 900 Linux

The computer is easy to use and easy to carry with you.
It is a great Nettop. It responds well with the original configuration.
I increased the ram from 1GB to 2GB and changed the version of Linux I use. The original operating system Xandros is easy to use and reponsive. But, with the amount of free software or OS's out there, I decided to try something different. Ubuntu Linux works well.I'm very happy with my purchase. The only downside is the fact that the priced dropped 2 weeks after i bought it.

Generally very good, though still have some problem.

It is very very cool. Everything is PERFECT except:

1. The linux system is way too simple and do not have enough packages to compile softwares, that is, you have to install these packages with pain. But anyway, there is lots of sources of open sources compiled softwares for eeepc to use online.

2. Don't install KDE desktop from Xandros or Debian sources, which is incompatible with the machine and make you machine down. Use the Tuxfamily's source.

3. It only support SD/MMC cards. Support SDHC card poorly that sometimes destroy your card.

ASUS Eee PC 900, 20GB

I got the Eee to take to take on a trip to South America so I could download photos from my Nikon D200. I take raw+JPEG pictures that take about 22mb per photo. I also took a WD 320GB ext HD. System worked great. I downloaded 2-4 hundred photos per day to the HD. I was also able to view and show slide shows of the photos with the built in software on the Eee. An added bonus was the built-in word processing software allowed me to write notes about the photos takes that day.

Even better, the built in wi-fi allowed me to get email in the Lobby of several of the hotels

The only complaint I had was the download speeds were slower than I had been used to.
