CrunchEee: CrunchBang Linux for the Eee PC

,----[ Quote ]
| Along with the 8.10.02 release of the CrunchBang Linux distribution, 
| announced at the beginning of the week, Philip Newborough also baked and 
| delivered an optimized version for the popular and tiny ASUS Eee PC. The new 
| edition is called CrunchEee and has the same version number as its older 
| brother. ASUS Eee PC users can test this very lightweight version of 
| CrunchBang Linux using a USB flash drive and by following the installation 
| instructions below. For those of you who don't know yet what CrunchBang is, 
| then you should know that it's an Ubuntu-based distribution powered by the 
| light Openbox window manager. But first, let's take a closer look at the 
| features brought by CrunchEee 8.10.02...

,----[ Quote ]
| I agree with designer Tariq Krim that we've yet to see an OS interface 
| perfectly implemented to a netbook's uniquely small hardware. Hence 
| Jolicloud, and judging from this UI shot, he's on to something.

Linux Carried Along on Netbooks Wave

,----[ Quote ]
| Morvay revealed to Linux Magazine Online that there were no specific figures
| for Linux netbook sales, but that it lay somewhere in the 40th percentile.
| Even though this figure seems a little high, it is known that many of the
| world's netbooks have Linux on board since their first inception 18 months
| ago.
|
| For example, notebooks with Linux make up about 5.5% of the notebook market
| in Germany...
