This is the regular Ubuntu. You can look for videos of the Acer One and Ubuntu Remix which is the version that was modified for the netbooks (I think its modified for the 9 inch screens)

My friend installed the Remix on a 9 inch EEE and his wife loves it.

From all the people I have seen using it (I hand out a friends computer store helping in repairs/shooting the shit), it seems its simplicity and big interface are a hit with non-technical people.
For advanced users, the underlying XCFE based desktop offers you a good Linux experience allowing you to import software like GIMP and Inkscape.
The Dell-Ubuntu Linux release is still a mystery since it is offered nowhere in the world but the US where it is on “pre-Order” stage. But anyone who frequents these pages has seen the video of its Ubuntu Remix like the simple look and easily accessible standard mode. Nice.
Funny that you can order an Dell XPS laptop with Ubuntu Heroine 8.04 and get it within three days. No prob. But the netbook version is missing.
Anyways, that's two I recommend.
And now the Mandriva comes along.
I installed it already on a friends 901 and like it.
But I use a mandriva based derivative called PCLinuxOS when friends ask me for a 'Leenix' so I know the underlying Drak configuration tools They both understand user friendly and are a true international distro and have always worked well out of the box as wth their distro on a USB concept which they have extended.
I see good things coming out and make it three different netbook distros that I can recommend to family and friends.
I bought a 16G USB key for 29$ this week. How much info do I really need to carry with me considering onlne services? can you condense your whole life, pictures, email, bills, work and store it online and a few USB keys?

I think the gdium dumb terminal is very good. Keep the OS and data on key and plug into different really cheap dumb terminals everywhere.

Stiil, Acer One is 329$. Worth every penny.

What are you waiting for Dell?

Let my Dell 9 Linux go!!
