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."

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*.

While true, I don't think many people will be buy a netbook (a little laptop) for their one-stop computing needs.
