Some example's why I am encouraging you to share your story at Cent OS
mailing list aka ML =

- Scope of Cent OS ML is global.
- Cent OS ML appears in Google search easily i.e. if somebody puts
asus eepc and cent os keywords.
- Appreciating the project team is always good ^_^  In this case Cent
OS. I guess Cent OS QA/Tetsing team did testing on those Asus eepc as
well.
