Steve, from my reading the Eee PC Xandros is a fork of Debian, and as
such uses apt for package management. I don't think it comes with
Synaptic pre-installed, but that's something you should be able to
take care of at the command line.

I've read alot of reviews on the Eee, and it looks like a neat device
but I'm personally looking for something with a slightly larger
screen. The 100-pound (don't know how to make the british currency
symbol in Linux) laptop is more like it, but with the current currency
exchange it's just too expensive.

Have fun with your new "toy"!
