Yup - when I was showing the Asus 700s around last year, just about every student wanted one. This year, they are coming in with their own Aspires & MSIs. Don't forget the education market, just about every LEA and College in the UK will be buying some of these. Most will have XP but some have the Linux variants. Ubuntu runs fine on my Asus 1000.
