I'd start with Ubuntu but even if you don't want to go that far
I'd still recommend Firefox 3 with your favourite addons, LastFM of
course, Pidgin to receive IM updates from GTalk & Jaiku, Skype,
OpenOffice, Flickr Uploader to batch upload those holiday snaps
directly from your camera, Transmission BitTorrent client. If you
get a touchscreen installed then go for Xournal. I also have a
MythTV frontend installed and that works really nicely on the home
MythTV system.
@alexleonard Got the
2nd eee back from Daudi yesterday. It will most likely got towards
the prize-pot for the next OCC BBQ. Surplus sponsor money is going
to Childlien as are the takings from the raffle...

Does Daudi still have 2 EeePC's?
What's going to happen to the second one?
