I had Ubuntu on my ASUS Eee netbook, and I couldn't figure out why it wasn't "shaking hands" with my wireless router.   I took it in to a friends' shop, and they put this horrible Android OS on it, which seems like my netbook now has a telephone OS....I have a portable disc burner/ drive, so I should be able to order a disc from Ubuntu,  wipe Android and re-install Ubuntu, right?
