Well, if anyone is interested in looking at the Eee in action, you can 
take a look at today's article in MC Press:

You can see some real pictures of the machine in action.  Personally, I 
love it.  There's a bit of the "shiny new toy" about my response, I'm 
sure, but if I can do some of the things I want, I'll be very 
impressed.  Just the idea that I can load any OS I want just by flipping 
a chip is a pretty cool concept.  My only concern is that it doesn't 
have a ton of horsepower, so running something like WDSC is probably out 
of the question.

But as a portable presentation terminal, for showing PowerPoints and so 
on, it's pretty slick.
