At a Barney Frank town hall meeting in Dartmouth, MA, a constituent asks, “Why are you supporting this Nazi policy?”

Frank responds: “On what planet do you spend most of your time?” He then calls her approach “vile, contemptible nonsense.” He closes by saying: “Trying to have a conversation with you would be like arguing with a dining room table.”

LATEST NEWS: The full review of the 900HA, the successor of the 900, can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASi_LvtvPAM .

=========================================

Review of the Asus EEE PC 900 mini-notebook from my dining room table.

The Ubuntu-EEE screenshots you see in the video are actually from the Ubuntu-EEE Live CD. I did install and thoroughly test Ubuntu-EEE for my review, but had already installed Windows 2000 when I realized I had completely forgotten to record any screenshots of the Ubuntu installation.

I can be such a n00b sometimes…

To install Windows 2000, you’ll have to create a new installation disc with the nLite utility available at http://www.nliteos.com . You’ll need to include the latest Windows 2000 Service Pack and the drivers from the EEE PC 900’s Windows XP driver disc, otherwise the Windows 2000 installation will fail to start.

One of the best tweaks you can perform under Windows is to move the swap file from the primary to the secondary solid-state drive. You’ll have more room for your applications, and there will be fewer read/write accesses to the primary drive.

A correction. One of the sample clips was mistakenly credited as “The Next Great Canadian Prime Minister. The title is actually “Canada’s Next Great Prime Minister”, which you can find at http://www.cbc.ca/nextprimeminister .

The creation of Israel was a defining battleground in 20th century struggles; where men known as terrorists to their colonial rulers were quickly transformed into statesmen. It is also a defining battleground today in the linguistics used by journalists. The Israeli nation was born using violent methods that some Palestinians espouse today, yet this resistance is generally called terrorism while Israeli violence is often considered self-defence. In this episode, Phil Rees travels to Gaza and the West Bank and asks: Is what the West calls terrorism, a legitimate response for a nation forced to live under the control of another?
