How very depressing:

The company has said it will now ship almost two-thirds of its
low-cost PCs with Microsoft's OS installed, to meet customer
demand

The existing Eee 701 model has until now come only with Xandros Linux in
Western markets. The 701 will shortly be available with Windows as an
option, and the next model . the more highly specified 900 . will also
come with both options, with the Windows version likely to cost slightly
more, due to Microsoft's commercial licence.
