NethrowPC

Ubuntu 8.04 running on the EEE PC 900 video as requested.

This is the big boy’s Linux for those who were unsatisfied with the Fisher Price style Xandros software suite. Judging by its performance its no surprise Asus went for Xandros as this system pushes the EEE PC almost as hard as Vista did.

All the eye candy was turned up on this install so with the Xubuntu script and other optimisations, this OS should run even smoother.

I tried to show as many features and programs as possible in the 10 minute clip.

Whether you love it or hate it, please rate and add your comments to the video.

Thanks for watching!

Asus EEE PC 900 Vista Vs XP Vs Linux – Boot & Shutdown Test

This is the video you have all been requesting, a benchmark between all three systems.

After the 3D mark 2003 tests, I was considering a way of benchmarking Linux as well.

I did a ray tracing test and a few others but they were not very watchable or YouTube friendly.

The test most of you have requested is a straight forward boot test between Linux, XP and Vista.

My conclusion is that Linux is still the fastest but not by much. XP works perfectly and very close to Linux and the fact that Vista runs as well as it does at all it great.

XP and Linux are very much on par for those of you mulling over which system to buy. The performance difference is negligible when you consider the superior device support XP has over Linux.

Anyway, I think all three systems have their merits and detractions so please comment away on your thoughts.
