OLPC/eepc and FIRST

Hello,

As I was browsing around the internet, I found that there are ways to install other distros of Linux on to the Asus EEPc (and even the OLPC). While price is the main attraction of these machines, their tiny size is also a big bonus (especially when you have to lug them to various competitions and events). I was thinking of getting one for myself (or maybe even the team ) but am being cautious.

Does anybody know how well the EEPc performs with an alternate distro of linux installed? Has anybody tried to use this machine with WINE and the c-18 compiler?

Further, has anyone put windows on it? (I couldn't find a conclusive answer online)..

The EEPc seems like such an attractive option to a robotics team. Its tiny, affordable, and well... Powerful for its size!


Thanks-
-Jordan
