Build a Portable Security Tool with the ASUS Eee PC and Ubuntu

,----[ Quote ]
| An easier distribution to put on an Eee PC is Ubuntu – especially if you 
| don't have a USB CD drive. That's because you can easily make an installer 
| USB stick for Ubuntu, and install the OS onto the Eee PC's hard drive from 
| that. The wired adapter works straight away with the installer, making 
| installation and adding packages simple, and the wireless adapter can easily 
| be coaxed in to life using the Windows XP driver supplied by ASUS.

The Asus Eee Laptop Series Selling Off the Shelves World Wide

| The sturdy and light weight Asus Eee has captured the hearts and minds of US 
| consumers, students and educators. The Eee series has all the features of its 
| competitors, but its affordable price is turning heads. The Eee units are 
| literally selling off the shelves world-wide.

| The popular Eee is not without its critics. IT Wire reports that Asus Eee may 
| have misrepresented the Linux loaded capabilities. According to IT Wire, some 
| Linux advocates say the Eee uses Xandros a Debian-based distribution that 
| charges a license fee and has an agreement with Microsoft similar to the one 
| signed by Novell.
