I want to perform a bios update on my newly acquired eee pc 1015PEM.  The
only way ASUS specifies is to use a program (AsusUpdate) provided with the
machine, running Windows 7 Starter.  I have not yet removed Win 7, so I can
use that program.  When I use that program to download the bios file, the
most recent version is 0801 10/7/2010. (This is through an FTP site.)
 ASUS's support web site lists a 1301 01/30/2012, and does not list the
0801 version at all.

I can transfer the 1301 version file to the netbook and use AsusUpdate to
update the bios.

i suspect that Asus has just not kept the ftp site up to date, but maybe
there is another explanation.  I do not want to brick the thing.

Once I get the Bios updated, I will scrap the Win 7 and install Ubuntu.

Recommendations?
