Once it is up and running, Ubuntu Netbook Remix on the EEE provides an excellent computing experience. Setting it up is a little involved though, and not something I would recommend to those of you who are brand new to Linux, having someone around who has already installed Ubuntu onto an EEE can help too (thanks Alex!). Hopefully soon it will be available pre-installed on netbook type machines, but after having used it for only a few days I can definitely say it was worth the effort to install it.
