Decent deal, especially when the Linux version is going for the same amount.

How can you install xp on eee yourself when it's got no CD drive?

  Here are some instructions. Not for the faint hearted.

  Why would you need to install it? It's preloaded.

Hmm … has anyone installed Office or other CD/DVD based install programs, on these notebooks? :)

  I think you can either get an external CD/DVD reader or share the optical drive on your "other computer" and then install them over the network, after Windows XP is up and running. Dump the CD/DVD images to external HDD/USB key and then mount them on Eee PC. Yeah, there are many ways to do it.
