Well, I'm a poor stupid. I damaged the display of my EeePC 900 and I'm
now thinking to get it replaced (for around 135 euro) or to buy a new
netbook. I don't even see the EeePC 1000 here in Germany in the market, only
the 1000H which seems to have a 160 GB hard disk, and I would like to
stay with SSD...

Any alternative netbooks outside Asus which run FreeBSD?

Thanks
