Surly I’m not the only one eyeing up the new Asus Eee subnotebook pc especially at the rumoured $150-$199 / £150 price point.

I’m wanting to put OSX on this little baby, so can it be done?

Personally I would love apple to go down this direction. Take a ultra high priced piece of tech, dump it down a little and make it mass market and for everyone.
Something not as powerful as a MacBook, no optical drive, slim line OSX, keeping everything Web2.0
(wow this is sounding like a iPhone) but a little more beefed up, with a real Web browser with Real Flash support and a Real keyboard and not $500 to $900, easy sync able and a complement to your home computer.

Asus Eee is showing the industry the way forward & with very regular updates, lets say every year or two (same as the ipods) I would be seriously hooked.
