Hi,
I am looking to buy the eee pc laptop. I do not have a lot of knowledge about computers, but here is what I want to use it for. I like the small size for traveling. I am looking for something to get online, read emails, play chess (I don’t pay other video games) and write letters. I know they do not have a disc drive so you have to use the usb plug in drives. The operating system they have is Linux (I have never used this OS).
I have another notebook at home that has windows vista. My question is, will I be able to write letters in Linux, save it on my removable drive and plug it into my Vista computer to be able to read the letter with Microsoft office? will I be able to download it to my vista notebook to be able to print it?
Also, they offer the 2GB with 800 mhz at 0 or for 0 more I can get a 4GB with 800 mhz. do you think the 2 GB will be big enough for what I want to do?
What is the Linux OS like?
Lots to ask. Thanks for your time.
