Unless you plan to come and nick my Eee PC, it'd be pretty pointless biggrin.gif

Apologies for the high pitched noise on the vid, I recorded it sat next to my beer fridge biggrin.gif

TBH I just watched the whole 10mins and found it very interesting ... did you manage to get onto your wireless network using the wifi widget ?

Any chance you can do a part II with App usage ? wink.gif

Paul your video indicates silent running but I thought that the EEE had a chipset fan in it.

Can you confirm if it has a fan / how loud it is.

Cheers

When I put my ear right down next to the vent, I can hear a VERY quiet fan.

Hmmm that quiet fan will become an earsore in a couple of years time.

To BUY or not to BUY that is the question :|

The disk has all the necessary drivers, an XP licence isn't included (but does work!)

Have you installed xp on it? what kind of speed odes it manage? I'm guessing it's better to stick with the Linux?
