Hi
I have an Asus 901 (linux). I chose this because of the larger disk capacity.
First thing to do is to dump the 'xandros' and install a 'proper' linux on the PC. I am using ubuntu linux, as I like the distribution and it is very simple to set up.
I have installed Wine (1.1.6) and I am running Mapsource 6.12.4 (windows version). I had no particular problems when installing.
I tried upgrading to the latest version (web update) but the software stopped working and I had to fall back.
Mail - Novell Evolution mail
Openoffice (word processing, spreadsheet, etc)
SKYPE 2 (for Linux) - a bit antiquated but funtional.
I can attach my sony camera to download and organize pictures.
Basically this set-up gives me what I need at present.
