Well, just as expected, Best Buy has added the Windows XP based Asus Eee PC to their website, albeit with a slightly misleading picture. The image shows the Eee PC clearly running the default Linux-based operating system, but if you dig down into the “Product Features” it clearly states that it has the “Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition operating system preinstalled.” Sadly there is no mention of the 4GB SD card that was rumored to be bundled with Eee. Aside from that, we will offer a bit of friendly advise, while Best Buy is kind of enough to suggest the Targus Slipskin Notebook Case, we will remind you that the Eee ships with a small slip cover of its own. Perhaps the best news is that the Windows XP based Eee PC retails at the same $399 price tag.
