Some thoughts on the Eee PC.
While I wait for my MacBook’s hard drive to clone so I can reformat it and install Adobe CS3* I’m using the Asus Eee PC I mentioned the other day. I talked about it a bit in the blog I write in for work. The keyboard is driving me nuts. I have a feeling it’s not as bad for non-touch typers, or for people with small fingers, but I’m still having problems (I have trouble hitting the I key, for some reason, and keep hitting Return instead of the apostrophe).
The small screen isn’t too bad–I had to dink with some config fles to shrink down the default font sizes, but after that I can actually see most of what I need to see on the limited screen.
OK, I’m resorting to hunt-and-peck. And still can’t hit the damn I key for some reason.
* So, if you’ve got a Mac and partitioned your hard drive as case-sensitive, you can’t install Adobe CS3. So I’m doing a full backup, then I’m going to reformat, then I’m going to install CS3. I;m thnkng a stern letter to Adobe may be in order.
