I would have to agree - my understanding is that the Vista installation
requires
15GB to install (with a recommended minimum 40GB drive) and then the
licence you have dictates what 'features' (aero etc.) are available.
Interestingly, it looks like OpenBSD-current will run on the EeePC. [0]
However, it does sound like there is a problem with suspend currently.
Still OpenBSD is a pretty small install, so would be ideal IMO.
And it seems that it's also possible to hack OS X to run on it! [1]
Cheers,
Steve
