Hey, BillyBaby (can I call you Billy, baby? ;-)

To be honest, I really don't know if you can do "Big Stuff" on an 
eee pc. It's a small machine with an Intel Atom 1.6 GHz,  12 GB 
SSD, 1 GB RAM and it's only 1.1 kg.
Personally, I haven't tried yet. I have read about people doing 
Photoshop and other heavy stuff. You might want to check the web 
on this.
I am planning to do all the usual internet stuff, Plus some photo 
editing and hopefully just a bit of Ableton Live. Oh, and movies 
  - works like a charm :-)
