I purchased this Asus EEEPC two months back from Croma, Vashi (17K) . This
laptop rocks. No issues till now. I just wish they had given a shell. I am trying to install Ubuntu on a USB pen drive and then use it on the laptop. The best thing I found is 3 USB ports and a VGA Output at higher resolution for projection.

For a shell,
Work --> File Manager --> Tools --> Console.
or
Home-t
or ctrl-alt-t
install kicker and ksmserver, reboot and you have the option of using the full desktop mode.
There is a huge user community already out there.
