Sorry: This is a scheduled post and I was not able to finish it before it was posted. There’s a lot more that I missed on this post, but you’ll certainly be able to find anything about it when you google it. Like Virus on the Eee Box, Touchscreen Eee PC, and a more and more…
Well, it’s here. Happy Birthday.
