Eee PC 701: Good enough for Windows 3.11

I’ve heard of people running Windows XP, Vista, Mac OS X, and every imaginable flavor of Linux on various Eee PC models. But Jair2k4 decided that rather than try to get the latest and greatest operating system up and running, it might be fun to take a little trip back in time and install DOS and Windows 3.11.

The verdict? Sure, you can run it. I’m not sure why you’d want to, but you could. You can even get the Ethernet drivers working so you can do a bit of web surfing if you don’t mind carrying an Ethernet cable around with you. So if you’ve always wondered how Internet Explorer 2.0 runs on an Eee PC, it looks like you can find out.
