While checking the Eee FAQ is probably useful, it's a cheap, tiny
flash-based laptop and has no optical drive. If the audio issues can
be worked out it might be a nice tool for gigging or field recording
(or tracker composition, as with Marc's program) as long as you don't
want to do much DSP.

On the eeeuser forums (where Marc seems to have posted his question as
well) there are people having the same sound issue in XP, so
installing XP may not help. Sadly, it sounds to me like Microsoft
will be offering Asus a deeply discounted XP in order to stop them
preinstalling Linux, so future iterations of the device may not be as
Linux-friendly.
