I've been running Puppy Linux on an Asus EEE, and it flies -
it's much faster than the supplied Xandros Linux.

Hmm, is that an Eee 701? I've got one, and I've been trying Eee-Ubuntu on
it (installed on an 8-GiB SD card). Seems a bit sluggish, and sleep
doesn't work (won't wake up after sleeping). Someone showed me Puppy at a
Software Freedom Day do on Saturday; maybe I'll give that a try.

It's a 901, but I got the same results on a friend's 701. Puppy is
astonishingly fast!
