gOS on the Eee PC

Ultramobilegeek has posted info on installing the gOS operaitng system on the Asus Eee PC. gOS is the Linux distro that is bundled with the USD199 Everex gPC being sold at Walmart. It will also be pre-installed on Everex's forthcoming USD399 Cloudbook lappie. It was recently featured in the post gOS 2.0 "Rocket" debuts.

gOS (the g stands for Green and not for, as commonly mistaken, Google) is based on Ubuntu 7.10 "Gutsy Gibbon" so all Eee Ubuntu drivers and hacks should work. However it has a tight interface with on-line Google applications - hence the common misconception. So if you are an avid Google fan, you might want to check it out.
