Netbooks News, Hacks and HowTo’s

I have personally witnessed a live presentation of ExpressGate on the EeeBox before and it was impressive. It has number of limitations compared to a full booted-up netbook, but it can just offer you anything you need as far as mobility is concerned. You can do Internet surfing, chatting, check emails. Before, it comes along with the motherboard. Now you can have it on your USB flash drive, perfect as an alternative OS for quick internet access.

Here are the requirements before you can install ExpressGate on a USB.

• A bit of knowledge about Linux.
• At least 512 MB USB Flash drive.
• A copy of ExpressGate which can be downloaded here

Steps about the installation process is detailed very well on Kinox’s site.
