Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y PHoronix has taken a look at several Linux distributions running on the Eee PC 901. "Late last month we published our preview of the ASUS Eee PC 901 and we shared our plans for a number of benchmarks using this netbook with Intel's Atom processor. Following our Linux desktop encryption benchmarks of the ASUS Eee PC 901 and Intel Atom N270 CPU we have a performance comparison of Xandros, Fedora, Ubuntu, and Mandriva on this low-cost netbook PC."

especially on a system which is likely to be used for fairly light tasks


Likely, likely.. This piss me off: you do realise that many people don't have the money to buy several computers?
Or more precisely don't want to spend more money than they need on computers, so they'll buy a laptop for the mobility and use it for *everything*.
