@chakuari plan 9 is designed as a system to be used, so you will find a lot of original unix tools there. You can try to install it on your eeePC, but we don't have too much hardware support, so you might have better results on thinkpads or a VM. If it doesn't work on your eeePC now, it might work in the future. We have a few people who are capable of writing drivers and stuff, we even have some support for wifi.
