I have an eee pc, but I decided to dump Xandros and put a "proper"
Linux distribution on instead. I decided to use Ubuntu, and used
ubuntu-eee, but others have used Mandriva, etc. Now that I run Ubuntu
I can install Quanta out of the normal Ubuntu repository. No
compilation necessary.

My 2 pennyworth.
