The Netbook Newbie's Guide to Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| You're going to look a bit weird on the bus holding your NetBook sideways,
| but you get a nice, readable full-size page, and at 15MB for the full
| illustrated versions of both Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the
| Looking-Glass, you can carry a good stock of books before your netbook fills
| up.

| It also isn’t a speed demon, but so far with web
| browsing and using OpenOffice, I haven’t found myself
| waiting for anything. One thing to note is that I
| requested a Linux version of the netbook. It runs
| “Linpus Lite Linux”, a customized version of
| Fedora with a very useful dashboard for everyday applications.

| The launch of the netbook was also aided by the
| progression of Linux, allowing vendors to cut
| out the cost of the operating system as well
| as customise it to offer a very basic and simple to navigate

| It also seems that, although Linux was
| originally the operating system of choice for
| netbooks, the majority of customers are opting
| for Windows XP versions of the devices.

| Using Linux lowers the cost because the
| manufacturer doesn't have to pay Microsoft a
| royalty and it improves performance because
| it's typically faster and less resource-hungry than Windows.
