Is there a way to download the OS of the EEE PC?

Unlikely given Xandros is payware.

I guess if you have an Eee PC there will be a recovery CD with it?

Cheers, Al.

I believe the Eee PC runs a dumbed down version of Xandros and if you need to re-install it you have to press F9 on boot which will re-install the base system. There are also programs available on some of the Eee PC help sites which are supposed to allow you to install the full Xandros system rather than the default version. The system also comes with a CD/DVD with all the drivers for Win XP if you choose to install that OS. You could ofcourse install Ubuntu from an external optical drive.

They even had a look at the Eee PC on the BBC2 weekend cookery programme 'something for the weekend' where they played with the voice control and the built in camera. Seoras
