Eee PC home setup

Eee PC home setup, via joelsuplido.

1440 x 900 Xandros Linux Easy Mode on a 22″ Acer LCD

Behind everything is a Dtech (Gadmei) TV tuner. This gadget lets me watch cable with the LCD monitor. It also handles the standard DVD player (above). So basically, the Eee PC is not directly attached to the monitor but passes through the Dtech device. (I have yet to figure out how to do picture-in-picture). A pair of Altec Lansing speakers are also connected to teh Dtech device (otherwise, I get a transistor-radio-like sound from the device).

Finally, there’s a standard Logitech keyboard and an MX1000 mouse connected to the Eee PC.

Nice setup!
You prefer easy mode rather than advanced?

Yup! Easy Mode really makes it easier to use the Eee PC :)
