LOL, if you go back and actually read my post, no where did it say I hate linux. But hey keep thinking what you want.
I'm sorry, you start off with an anti linux rant, so excuse me if I am mistaken in seeing you as someone who dislikes linux.
If that isn't the case, try Elive.

I think everyone hates Vista, not sure it's entirely deserved, but ya, seems to be pretty much universal.

I own a computer store, and I can't keep the EEEPC in stock, but everyone I have ever sold (over a 100 just last month alone), the customer has demanded XP installed.
It'll be interesting to see what'll happen when these folks find their OS is orphaned in what, a years time or so?

I don't hate linux, I just don't use linux and get a huge kick at how the Zelots re-act to anti -linux comments.
Ah, so you enjoy trolling.
K, noted.

I do hink 4 gig SSD drive are totaly useless for anything. Even if I did run linux, I would want to put movies and such on my EEEPC for traveling, and defiantly more than one.4 gigs is just not enough to store anything on these days. In order to make it usable, you have to buy extra SD cards.
I can't argue that - first thing I did with my 2Gb version was buy a 4Gb USB stick to do the same.
That said, without the movies, 2Gb is plenty for my needs - text takes up surprisingly little space.

But, I am looking at a Blackberry for my next phone, the curve is Identical to the Treo, but without a touch screen, and far less apps.
Why not get another treo then?
Unfortunately, Palm is not really updating the PALM OS anymore (not even made or owned by PALM) and is mostly going to Windows Mobile. The Blackberry is quickly becoming the standard, especially in the business world. Eventually, I will be called on to service and support Blackberry products. Windows Mobile has a good head start here in Canada, but it's the Blackberry that will be number 1 in a year or so.
Its Access who own them now, they also own (through the palm deal) BeOS.
I doubt we'll be seeing any releases from Access any time soon tbh. Shame because PalmOS 6 was shaping up to be very, very cool.
