I still have four EeePCs. I had four of the original Linux-only model with the tiny keyboard and weird Linux distro. Those I got from a startup which bought a lot of them and found them useless. I replaced those with EeePC 1001 ("Seashell") models, which I buy on eBay for about US$30, wipe, and install Xubuntu.
They're convenient for things for which one might use a Raspberry Pi. You get a keyboard, screen, case, power supply, hard disk, battery, and ports. It costs more to build a Raspberry Pi up to that level.
That's what I use to run all those antique Teletype machines I restored. I have USB to 60mA 45 baud converters I built to interface them.
