SteveF: This Netbook is great for surfing the web, downloading music and using basic office applications and was originally designed with children in mind so should be fine and yes, it has a USB port so you can use a memory stick with it no problem.

Matt: Yes.
31/10/2008 Alan: What software is available for the eeepc and how do you load it on without a disc drive?
Matt: You could use an external drive or a shared network drive if the software is on disc, however a lot of Linux software is open source stuff that you would download.
31/10/2008 Tony C: I have seen it stated that the Linux OS is compatable with Win XP. Does this mean that programs which run under XP will also run under Linux or does this only apply to MS Office?
Matt: Linux is an alternative to Windows XP, the programs for one will only run on another if they say so. Microsoft software will not run on Linux.

17/05/2008 Keith Altman: Is the Linux operating system compatible with Microsoft Office so that a Word document can be opened if it is sent as an email attachment? Also will the Linux word document if sent by email be openable in Microsoft word?
Easycom: It does use standard formats which are cross compatible with Windows.
08/05/2008 samwel: How much memory can this take, and also is there an official release date and price for the intel atom processor version as i would like to know if it is worth waiting for the better processor. thanks
Easycom: The atom-cored EEE PC will be released at the end of June this year, although as with all EEE PCs we are expecting very high demand for them. The EEE PC has only one slot and has 1024mb as standard - I suspect this may be the maximum amount it can take.
