    My desktop is shitty.

    This is the PSP background I'm using instead. The picture I got off the net somewhere, and the theme is just a .ptf I downloaded.

    The screenshot program I use makes it look a little brighter than it really is.

    I've got a widescreen, so I'll just link mine instead.

    It's my favorite spot from Half Life 2. I think my next one will be the easter egg nearby. Yeah I know I should get Garry's mod but whatever, I'm lazy and I'm fine taking screenshots while I'm in the game, so there.

    WnR, you have an Eee?

    How is it? What do you think of it?

    I'm probably going to get one, flash it with Ubuntu, and use it as my school laptop.

    It's an ultra-portable laptop from Asus.

    It has a 4gb solid state drive and comes with a proprietary version of linux.

    I'm am digging it. It gives me a way to mess with linux with worry, since you can just restore it to factory with a button during boot. I took me a few days to get used to typing on it, but I'm good now. I wish I had this thing in school, honestly. I think it would be perfect. Coming up, I want to add more ram and get XP on here so I can play games. All my favorite games are 5+ years old, so they'll run like a charm. Portable Deus Ex and X-Com here I com.

    How hot does it run?

    How is it with sleep mode?

    How is the battery life?

    I'm thinking that I'll probably end up buying an extra battery for it, so I can have a spare on hand.

    Mine is never too hot to touch to bare flesh or cause discomfort. The battery is shooting around 3 hours, maybe? They're supposed to be selling a larger battery at some point.

    Yeah, I'm hoping it's on the market before I go back to school in the fall*.

    I think they've already showed new models of it, so by fall I expect more choices/better prices. Also, maybe some non-shit competition will get to market by then.

    That's about what I've gotten too. Dim the screen, and kill the wifi and you'll get more.

    Heat is non-existent. I notice it getting warm, but that's about it.

    Sleep seems good, though generally I've just turned it off when I didn't need it.
