After looking over the EEE's specs and prices we had an in-office discussion today and came to the conclusion that for a bunch of developers and/or consultics the EEE is the better system.

+ It can play PowerPoints using OpenOffice

+ It has a video out that I can use to attach a bigger screen or beamer (Always can be borrowed at the customers side these days)

+ Large (and expandable) conventional memory and an INTEL CPU means I can run quite a few Demo-Systems on it on a slow but useful base

+ The Keyboard is good enough for the average two finger + thumb typist

+ Small enough to travel in an attache case and still leave room

+ Clearly defined form factor (Subnotebook) instead of "new and undefined"

Now all we wait for is the 9'' model so we can install/use XP on the plattform.
