Don't get me wrong. I love linux - and I am on a 8.9" netbook running Ubuntu 8.10 (all the software are running well) - except for the fact that I CANNOT connect to my router in WPA secured mode. Until these issues get fixed - and the fact is that the ASUS eeepcs windows and linux versions here in my country have more or less the same price - people will choose the machine with Windows XP over linux. Btw, this machine is worth about $400 and comes with 120Gb, 1Gb RAM, Intel Atom N270 and Windows XP service Pack 3 - I'm just dual booting with Ubuntu here.

The long standing error"Microsoft Office (Word or Excell) has not been installed for the current user. Please run setup to install the application" has now been properly fixed as of Wine 0.9.52 in addition to many other fixes and enhancements. If you currently use Office 2003 on Linux via Wine this should be considered as a major upgrade."
