I want to know if the operating system linux is windows vista friendly. This laptop is using openoffice program instead of microsoft office. The question I have is since this laptop only has a 4GB harddrive. Once I fill up the meory with documents I have writen and saved on the laptop (asus Eee Pc) can I transfer that information and store it on my desktop computer running windows vista with microsoft office 2003 will I be able to further work on the document that I created from the laptop using openoffice?
I like this laptop and I want to buy it. I like it cause its only 2lbs. and it has a built in web cam and most importantly it only cost $399.00

Super easy to do.
Just buy a cheap thumb drive or SD card. Save your files on the card and then take them over to your Vista machine and read them.
If you save them as a .doc file you can read them with a basic word processor like WordPad.
Your better choice would be to download Open Office for your Vista machine. Its free so no issue there. Then the documents will be fully transferrable between the two machines.
I've been doing it all the time. I make the documents on my EEE and take them to my Vista machine. I download tv shows on my Vista machine and move them to the EEE to watch.
As for the cost....If you don't need the webcam you can get the Asus EEE 4G Surf for only $349 from newegg.com

observed a little one utilising it in a bar interior the French Alps final week; they look rather uncomplicated to apply and correctly designed. If all you desire out of a working laptop or pc is internet surfing, media playback and workplace courses, then that is ideal, however the shortcoming of hard stress storage and a CD stress shall we it down slightly. quite, you may probable desire yet another pc for doing issues which you will no longer be able to do with the Asus Eee.
