Apple's Mac OS X has been successfully used to boot up an Asus R2H ultra-mobile PC, which runs the operating system slowly but surely. To minimise claims that all the still photography is faked, the start-up process has been captured on video.

OMG that's slow! There are obviously lots of compatibility issues going on, since the processor alone can be the cause (Tiger runs great on my old 466MHz PowerMac G4). Graphic drivers?
Nice hack though - Makes me wonder if Apple is ever going to release a subnotebook to take place of the old 12" iBook/PowerBook.
edit: so, it's not the RAM, at the end of the video it shows 768MB... that leaves the graphic drivers as the most likely suspect
