QUOTE(zhumak @ Mar 18 2008, 11:07 AM) i use external DVD drive to install, not USB. by the way, thanks, problem solved  i only left 1.2GB after install Window XP, haven install drivers yet. the website showed only use 500MB to install XP, left 2GB for other thing, but mine does not seem to work this way, i follow the same as instructed la, dunno wat happen. after i install all the drivers, left 800MB only......... is there any way to transfer the drivers to SDHC, instead of SSD? thanks. i think your pagefile is still on. that's why you have so little space left. disable pagefile and also, how much RAMs you have? if you have 1/2GB...you can create a RAMdisk and put internet explorer/firefox cache and cookies there so that it won't take any more space from your SSD. there's a guide in this thread...a few pages back i think.

mraz: if you got the budget, get kohjinsha, otherwise, eee pc is good choice. bcos for eee pc, when u add RAM + 8gb SDHC / 16gb and window original, it cost about the same as kohjinsha already, and kohjinsha the haddisk is 100GB, worth more.
im using eee pc, for me, it is more than enough, just secondary laptop for me, i got few laptops already. this one is for mobile only.
eee pc with webcam is good deal i should say, rm1299. some ppl say the newer version 8GB cost rm1899 or 1999, this is not a good price i guess.
