Me too. My projects are flashing a ViewSonic G Tablet (w/Dennis and Heather) and developing an approach for centralized user data and settings in unreliable networks.

Lorin: To your point, I liked all the Ubuntu Netbook Remixes I used, and I suppose I'll like Ubuntu 11.04 Unity whenever I get around to learning it.

Subject: [clue]  Installfest this Saturday

I'm planning to be at this Saturday's Installfest, to help out (I had a 
great time at the last one), and to get some help on a little project of 
my own:

I've got an ASUS Eee mini-notebook, which still has the manufacturer's 
stock Linux distro installed on it -- the one that sucks.  I'd like to 
re-install the current "best netbook distro" on it, and am hoping to get 
help/advice, and actually do the install, this Saturday.

Question:  What's currently considered the "best netbook distro", even a 
beta, for the Eee?  More than one?  URL for download?  I'd like get & 
bring whatever's nominated here in response on a USB stick (or two) for 
Saturday's event.

TIA... See y'all Saturday.

BTW, thanks to all of you who are working hard on the website issues -- 
wish I had something to offer, but it looks to be in good hands.  Just 
remember to be tough on the problem, but easy on the people!

best regards,
