If you pop a 1GB, maybe 2GB you would be A for away

The only problem I see with this, is the limited sound, unless you plug in an external USB sound card or something

You can get your XP install to 600mb pretty easily, compress the drive etc etc
Its all in the manual. Will see if I can hook you up with some linkage later today

Any Idea when will the eeepc 900 release be in South Africa?

techtom · Post by **techtom** » 07 Jul 2008, 17:13

Hey ShadowBurn. Rumour has it that South African suppliers are having a hard time getting the 900 into Africa - The European and Asian markets are buying them all up before we can get there

But it'll get here eventually I guess. Hopefully soon!

I can't actually believe how little EeePC talk there is in this forum, but looks like all the EeePC fanatics got involved in this post so wanted to share a really cool EeePC resource with all of you - http://www.iceblue.co.za/products/asus-eeepc/

I never even knew about openarena! (It's like opensource quake 3 and it runs on the EeePC!) I know you guys will love it! Rocking

check it out!
