I am in the process of configuring an EEEPC as my new Windows XP machine. The features I like are the quiet running and low power consumption. I have issues configuring it but this is the fault of the operating system and not the hardware. I use rdesktop from my linux box to interact with XP using XP's remote desktop feature.
