eeePC 900 has just arrived-- Linux flavor

I just unboxed my eeePC 900 20GB. It is impossibly small. Here are some photos of the unboxing. This was a gift from my brother, Benjamin. He can be "seen" over at World's Greatest Toys dot com.











The box has arrived and here is the machine with my iPod and with a regular CD:










Here is the machine open with a CD on top for scale:











Finally, here it is booted and show the main screen, and then Firefox (where I'm getting beaten in chess).










I have just begun playing. The screen looks great, the keyboard is quite small. I don't think I'll have too much trouble adapting though. I have already set up an nLited XP disc and I'll work towards installing XP some time soon.

Thanks for reading
Andy

Dang, that thing is tiny!
I'm glad you dig it. BTW, when did you turn into such a ginormous nerd?

Oh wait. I'm your brother... I think I remember; you were about 6 years old.
