Members of the Linux community have complained that the hot new sub-notebook from Asus, the eeePC, may have violated the spirit of the Linux General Public License. Some Linux advocates claim the eeePC has not included required source code with the installed Xandros Linux distribution and does not easily enable users to install another distro. However, there are indications that eeePC fans probably don't care.

Somewhat stupid conclusion, since no one asked for the code!
The GPL clearly says that you must provide access to the source, not that you must make it available through download channels!
