Fair enough, I just checked and the eeePC I have has a celeron 900Mhz
chip in it.

I thought it was underclocked but /proc/cpuinfo states "cpu MHz:
897.8" so I guess it's not under clocked but I didn't do anything I
can think of that would have upped the clock speed, maybe changing
from xandros to debian did it.
