I just bought a new Asus Eee PC 1000h - Black
with Win XP Home - 160GB - 1GB DDR Ram.
I have my older Eee PC 4GB 701 - still keeping it just for web browsing, office work, etc. I was limited by HD space in running my emulated Amiga games and apps.
I plan to use my new Eee PC 1000h for Amiga Forever 2008,
Upcoming C64 Forever, AROS, VMWAROS, Amigasys, X-amiga, Amiga Classix, Amikit, Syllable OS (Amiga OS-like)
I don't plan to run any modern Windows Apps or Mac OS X Leopard except for iTunes which I have my iPod touch connected to to listen to Amiga Roundtable.
I also plan to run Ubuntu 8.10 on a separate partition to run my open source apps: GIMP, Sodipodi. I also love Linux.
Another partition will be dedicated to weirder operating systems I plan to run such as: Bell Labs Plan-9.
Now I have the opportunity to run these things since the Hard Drive now is much roomier and a higher res screen means I can emulate Picasso 96.
These subnotebooks are perfect candidates for Emulating an Amiga since its so hard getting a Pegasos, or these wishful modern amiga-like hardware to run Amiga and Amiga-like OS. I wish Morph OS is X86 based. or... Amiga OS 4.1
Maybe I'm asking too much.
I will have fun on this new machine and let you guys know how it works out. If only Asus bought the rights to Amiga Inc, we would all have a new Amiga OS.
Cheers,
Amigakidd.
