Thanks for stopping by Eeelife! My name is Derek and I thought I’d post a little about myself and my interest in the Eee PC. I cut my teeth on an old Mitac 286 running DOS on an old amber and black CRT. Ever since then I have been involved in computers in some fashion or another. Like any person suffering from “gadget-i-tis” I’ve had my share of gadgets: Palms, an HP Jornada 680 and now a Motorola Q. I’ve also had several laptops/notebooks, but have always been looking for “the” subnotebook or ultraportable computer. I believe that I have found this in the Eee. I look forward to purchasing an Eee and finding out what it will do. I’ll try to share the things I learn with those who read this blog, and hopefully in some small way contribute to the growing database of information on this great little device.
As a disclaimer, I am in no way affiliated with ASUS nor the development of the Eee PC. This site is merely intended as a resource for others interested in the Eee.

Good morning,
I recently received a EEE as a gift. I must admit that with my limited knowledge of computers, at first glance, I thought I had received an electronic not-so-portable organizer. Nonetheless I have started playing around with it and as time passes I have to admit that I am really becoming a fan. For whatever reason, I just find that it is FUN to use.
I’m presently using the computer in the Easy tabbed version, but I was wondering if you had moved over and enabled the adnaced desktop?! Any thoughts? I was also wondering how this is done.
Thanks for your time.
