Obviously you know how to install Windows XP. I can't find any CD-ROM on it, so I have to create a bootable WinXP installation thumbdrive. Unfortunately, to use WinXP in EeePC, you will experience a slow performance. And I mean really slow. After you have start Windows, it takes like 30 seconds to load. Its VGA output will sometimes have problems when connect to a projector. It can run 3D games, but the loading is really slow as well. Photoshop have crashed a few times (not responding). For a programmer / gamer/ graphics designer, this is not what you want. For a businessman , it is.
Who the **** wants linux? Linux is garbage. How am I going to dev for windows on a linux platform? And also after watching a video of some guy use Visual Studio 8 on it I think it will fit my needs considering the dev software I use it a lot smaller and the programs I'll be working on aren't nearly as large.
