Well done.  Having done some flying in the past, I have some
appreciation of the scale of that achievement.

I haven't used XP on an eee, but surely it would be like XP on anything else.

The eees two in my house are both the Xandros version.  I agree that
the whole system is quite well tuned to the task.  It's closer to
being an appliance than a workstation, and that's a good thing.

Incidentally, has your uncle used a Xandros eee?  Can he reliably compare them?
