The wee Eee

| The other is the Eee's efficient, secure software. Windows Vista's bulk would 
| swamp the Eee's limited storage, so Asus chose the free, open-source Linux 
| operating system.  
| 
| The result is a nifty but sometimes tricky Internet machine usable for basic 
| writing, spreadsheet and presentation work — and which can't get sick from 
| Windows viruses or spyware. If you stick to those activities, you can be 
| happy with the Eee.
