OT: Ubuntu NBR
After a few issues with WinXP on my Aspire One netbook, I took the
plunge and installed Ubuntu NetBookRemix yesterday.
Very impressive. The One feels quick and snappy now and the NBR version
has been quite impressively tweaked to suit netbooks.
I'd love to go OSX on it, but I really don't want to strip the machine
down to install a new WiFi card and more memory.
If you are a netbook user, then I'd definitely recommend trying out NBR.

Did you post that to the wrong group perchance? :-)
