there was a lot of discussion on the OESF (mainly zaurus, some simpad, some archos) forum about starting a section for Asus EEE. People wanted it because the normal eee forums were chock full of people asking the same dumb questions. People wouldn't buy a piano or guitar without expecting to have to learn how to use them and even taking some tuition, but they can buy an enormously complex computer and expect it to be easy.

this forum is excellent for friendly people and lack of junk. the OESF forum is also very good. in both cases it's the communities who've made the devices achieve so much! I probably wouldn't have bought an N800 without this resource to draw on, I lurked for months before taking the plunge.
