I'm already using Linux with my Asus EEE PC and I'm thrilled with it.  
I'll let you know more after I come back from my first road trip.  But I 
do look forward to not lugging the laptop as well as its assorted 
peripherals.  Everything for the EEE fits in a soft case about the size 
of a hardback book - okay, it's perhaps the size of a Harry Potter book, 
but it's lighter <grin>.
