My Eee PC 900 – Windows 2000 Professional
It seems I ended up with something entirely different from Xandros anyway. After using it for a while now, I’m much happier with windows 2000 on my EEE 900. It’s fast and runs what I need it to in a simple manner. Xandros needed some tweaking and seemed to hang often on itself.
For those interested in trying out Win2000 on their EEE, read on.

But before I can enjoy the existing system I want to see what this little thing can do. After playing around for a short while I decided to try XP Pro on it.
