Windows 7 and Ubuntu

Finally finished setting up my Eee to dual boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu (easypeasy). Sweet. Windows 7 is a bit slow to boot (about 60 seconds to useable) unless I hibernate it (20 seconds) and Ubuntu rocks (20 second boot). The SSD has halved the boot times, and I think more RAM will help even more.
They both run pretty well on the Atom processor and now with Windows I can tether my iPhone for mobile internet. Why oh why Apple won't you provide drivers for Linux for this.
Anyway, that's my little bit of geek (or tekbuster) for today.
