Try out the operating system from the new Asus Eee PC!
The ASUS Eee PC is a new 'sub-notebook' designed by ASUS and Intel. It is under 2 pounds and sports a 7" screen. The name Eee (pronounced as the letter 'e') is an acronym for "Easy to learn, Easy to work, Easy to play".

It looks cute but I can't seem to get it to go full screen and I tried Penguin racer and it doesn't work right.
The screens too small for me to try anything else.

I configured this to make the screen the same size as on the actual Eee device. You can try out a larger screen size by pressing "Ctrl-Alt-T" to open a terminal and typing "xrandr -s 1024x768". The toolbar will still be in the wrong place, but it will work. To make it permanent, type "sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf" in the terminal, scroll down to near the bottom of the file and uncomment the "Modes" line that contains "1024x768" by deleting the "#" mark at the start of the line, press Control-O and enter to write the file, then press Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to restart the X server.

I made the permanent resoltion change and the tool bar when to the bottom.
I like it Full screen so I changed my vote to 5 stars.
10x better than the One laptop per child LivePC!

I've used this on USB with a portable Moka5 Engine install, it runs great. Owing to the size of the image, you need to have at least a 2GB USB.
