[ILUG] ASUS EEE availability and Komplett US model

[Thomas Rooney]

Hi All

You can get an EEE PC from Back From The Future on Anger street in  
Dublin.
I had a play one with last week, good fun to use plug in your 40GB mp3  
player
and you laughing like a mad thing. I think its there first Linux p.c.  
so go
easy on the staff as most of the people on this list will know a lot  
more about
Linux. And before anyone asks I don't work there!

Regards To All

Tom
