"Ever since I got the eeePC I've loved how easy it is to tinker with. Since I'm not a Linux guy, I dumped the Xandros preload and opted for Windows XP so I could use my EVDO USB datacard and blogging software easier, but I wondered could I install OSX on it? And, after trial and error - you can! The only problem is that the eeePC only supports SSE2 instead of the SSE3 that Leopard is coded for. Kind of a bummer, and will require some extra tinkering to coax the OS on the eeePC."

Well, if WWIII breaks out over a software license issue, we as a planet are more screwed than we ever imagined.
Granted, I get the sarcasm, but honestly it's not that big a deal. Hell, I'd love it if Apple would come out with something like this device running OS X, at somewhere between the original price and that of a Mac Mini, but I doubt that will happen for several reasons. After all, they wouldn't want to kill off sales of the MacBook, right?
