A review of the Asus EeePC. It concludes: "The Eee PC may be targeted at children and students, but it should also entice anyone needing a compact, low cost, yet fully functional PC. It is featherweight, far easier to use than a Windows machine, starts up three times faster, and costs about a quarter of anything in its weight class."

It is actually a nice and clever way that allows a lot of less advanced fiddlers to easily restore to factory defaults. If you're happy to fiddle with the factory defaults, it's not hard to change those, and have an easy custom setup that you can revert to. I'm very impressed with the way it's been implemented.

Yeah the system partition is read only so it cannot be modified once the OS is booted. Then they have the user partition and it's all put together with unionfs.
