Hardware, Embedded Systems Geeks.com, known for their cheap laptops, sent us the Acer Aspire One for a review. Thom wrote a review of the popular laptop recently, but here's my take on it. Update: After this review went up, and within two hours, I installed Ubuntu 8.10 (time is 4:10 AM here, couldn't sleep until I had Ubuntu in there). Using this very nice tutorial, I have everything up and running.

Eugenia - You claimed you have everything (emphasis mine) up and running with Ubuntu 8.10. Does that include the xD card reader capabilities of the right-hand slot? My experience is that the Linpus kernel is the only kernel with the appropriate drivers.
