Unfaithful

I finally gave in and installed XP on my Eee PC. After struggling with the space constraints for a few days, I think I finally have a very handy little unit here. I can access my Exchange account in Outlook 2007, sync files with FolderShare, access my other computers using WHS — it’s awesome.

Believe it or not, XP loads a lot faster than Ubuntu Gutsy, and feels more stable on the Eee’s somewhat puny hardware. Of course, the fact that it’s six years older could have something to do with that.

Linux, it’s not that I don’t love you. But Windows and I have had a long history together, and it just feels… comfortable on the Eee. I know I promised you space on the MacBook Pro, but with Leopard and Vista on there already, it’s getting a little crowded.

Don’t worry, though. I’ll always save a partition for you on my desktop.
