Best Buy Sells Windows-Powered Asus Eee PC For Same Price, Apr 07, 2008

We already knew that Asus was going to start selling their Eee PC subnotebook computer with Windows XP pre-installed, but we didn't know how much the Microsoft tax was going to be. As it turns, it's zero. Hopping on over to the Best Buy website, you'll find that the 4GB Eee PC with Windows XP is the same price as its Linux counterpart.

We knew that the Asus Eee PC was going to be popular, but no one expected it to become this popular. Sales figures are starting to roll in for the Asus Eee PC and it turns out that Asus has shipped over 350,000 units thus far, outperforming all early estimations.
