Comments about ASUS EeeBox PC EB1007 Desktop Computer (Black):
Installation of Windows 7 using a USB memory device went smoothly. System seemed a bit sluggish until I installed an additional 2 Gb of RAM (highly recommended). This helped significantly. Very happy with the machine.

Comments about ASUS EeeBox PC EB1007 Desktop Computer (Black):
This is a very inexpensive computer in a small and quiet form. Unfortunately, the Operating System installed is the most limited version of Linux that I have seen. Consider buying this only if you are comfortable installing a good version of Linux, such as Ubuntu. There are other reviewers who have successfully installed Ubuntu. It will be easiest to install if you have a USB optical drive.
I wanted this as a test server, and tried to install Centos (a Linux variant), but was unable to get it running, because Centos did not contain the device driver for the ethernet connection. My bad, I forgot that you cannot put old operating systems (wine) into new computers (skins). It is such a nice computer that I will keep it and wait for a new version of Centos that has all of the drivers that this computer requires.
