yeah i was thinking of using the eee as a carputer but seriously... its not worth it because the lack of power. the operating system it comes with is a light version of linux. yes you can install windows xp on there but its a bit sluggish i already tried it. after awhile you'll want more power.

honestly, i would wait about another year until asus can find better ways to put in faster procs in there.

and solid state memory is cool and all but its still a bit slow when compared to a 7200rpm hard drive or better yet a 10,000rpm raptor drive.

so for now, stick with a regular laptop. i'm building my carputer using this railing system i made that sits underneath the passanger seat. i just slide the laptop underneath into this slot i made and it automatically hooks up to the power supply. this way i can still use my laptop for school and a carputer. cool.
