Gianni, way to go for winning the game machine!! Bravo!

installing Linux and windows are not the same, linux is a lot easier to install than windoze.

If anyone does not want to use the original eeepc anymore, I will be happy to take it as a gift. We get a little over three hours under linux using wifi.

I have an Asus EEE 900 and used nLite to include SP3 and make the XP install down to less than 2GB. Running the OS on the slower secondary drive isn't recommended.

So many highbrow technical terms in today's show..."clicky thing"..."buttload"...

Would that be a metric buttload, a Standard British buttload, or a USDA Choice buttload? Veronica, you must be more specific about these things.

:D

You forgot British Standard Whitworth buttload. They look like normal SAE/British but are different.

Great to hear some reality, tuning Windoze is a marginal effort that takes lots of time and yields little. To really tune a box, install Linix on it.

Regarding the Speed thing!

Hi Patrik and Veronica.

Regarding the bandwidth thing.
It is more then possible to achieve some extra throughput by using additional interfaces.
Me myself use 3 NIC in one single PC to gain x3 the speed i would theoretically get from 1 NIC.
All depends on how the ISP limits your bandwidth.

I got a fiber connection (100up and down). Usually a ISP fiber line can handle well above 1Gbit/s if so needed but most of the ISP's limit their bandwidth to 100Mbit/s per household.
The others like me can be happy tho cause my ISP limits it per IP which enables 100Mbit/s per ip (and i get 5 of them) so by adding two NIC's to my already existing one in my PC give me a max theoretical speed of 300Mbit/s up and down. Now ofc the HDD can only handle about 20MB/s so well you need a raid setup to go beyond x2 NIC's.

Anyway, it's more then possible so whoever asked that question to Patrik anv Veronica, i'd say they are just telling lies (=O)!
Check with your ISP to see if they cap you speed per household or IP.
If you got more then one IP you can be golden!
