I've been waiting for the "then you win" bit for a while now. I thought we had, when Asus released their first batch of EeePCs. Wasn't it Asus's CEO who said something like "there's no way I'm going to contaminate my beautifull machines with a crap OS like windows"? so here we are. and It's nice to think that they where bought out, but I need to see the reciept to believe that. I suspect it may be more of a case of mainstream market wanting mainstream products. I think Asus chose the wrong flavour of Linux. I flashed mine with Ubuntu, but you average grandma wouldn't know how to do that.
