I got one because it was cheap, small, and something I could throw around and
take on the train with me to watch videos, IRC, etc. The keyboard's far too
small to do real work on, though.

I have to admit to being a bit disappointed with the Linux install on this
EeePC (4G Surf), but I guess at the price they sell these things it, Asus can't
afford to do proper QA.
