I’ve been mouthing off about the much anticipated arrival of my new EEE PC, and when it arrived at work for its glorious unboxing, my wonderful co-workers were ready to own me with a samba exploit -locked and loaded. Reference: ASUS Eee PC rooted out of the box

That’s what you get when you work in this industry. I had it coming I suppose. The EEE PC is just too damn cute. How could anybody forcibly overflow its cute tiny little heap! That’s just cold hearted pwnage.

A series of updates were released for the Asus EEE PC today, pdf reader, messenger, firefox, openoffice, the samba daemon of course, and some other tweaks.

Recognize! My EEE PC is patched like a mug now! Leave my lil’ EEE PC alone!
