Hey Daniel - I bought one of these to fool around with today as well as a new Toshiba Satellite laptop. DJ's also threw in an Olympus 8MP camera to boot! All for just over $1,200 - not bad.
What a great little unit the eeePC is. To those who have mentioned that the Lenovo laptop is a better bet - that isn't the point. This is A5 form factor (sub notebook), runs linux quite quickly and is a lot of fun.
I've just powered mine up and only find basic OpenOffice, a few games, internet-related stuff - but no terminal as such. Yours came with KStars? I see that its based on KDE, but can't see too many K-apps yet. Oh well - time to investigate
