Brad Help!! I just got my son a EEE PC I called AT&T to get DSL and they seemed completly lost when I told them about this laptop and that they require Windows. Can you help me? Plus I am looking for the instructions on how to open the terminal to make this a full lap top.
Thank you!!

1. You can open a terminal by hitting Ctrl+Alt+T
2. Don't worry about the Windows only bit with At&T. If you get a DSL modem and possibly a WiFi router from them, you will be able to connect to the internet using an Ethernet or WiFi connection. You can also install Windows XP on the Eee PC. Here's a guide to get you started:
