I'll be sat in J.D. Wetherspoons browsing the forums on mine at some point tomorrow, pint of Guinness in hand.

I'm still using my eeepc with a default, but slightly tweaked, Xandros installation.
In all honesty, it does exactly what it's supposed to perfectly well, so I've seen little point in changing.

If I were going to change, it would be to Mandriva 2008.1, which supports all of the eee hardware without any fuss. I've also seen an Ubuntu installation on a work colleagues eee which worked quite well, though he did confess that it took a bit of setting up. Ubuntu would never be my first choice, but each to their own.

Regarding Puppy there are several remastered versions especially for the Asus.

The best is Dingoplus. That is basically the latest Puppy v4 with drivers for the Asus and OpenOffice installed.

You can download it from - http://puppylinux.org/downloads/puplets/dingoplus

Why not grab the iso (its a live cd naturally) and give it a try on your desktop. Its worth remembering that you could even install Dingoplus simply to a USB drive and boot the Asus from it as and when you want, even if you don't fully install it to the Asus.

Cheers,
