    I just purchased a new netbook and instead of using a regular Linux distribution such as in the past I'm thinking of using one of the netbook versions.
    In the past I've used OpenSUSE and Mandriva on netbooks and Ubuntu on a desktop.
    If I'm correct Acer comes with Linpus but is that available for purchase without purchasing a netbook?
    Also, what about the custom Xandros distribution on the ASUS eeePC. Is that available separately?

    The two choices I really know of that I could likely install on my own are Ubuntu Netbook Remix and Mandriva Mini. Does one of these stand out as the best? Is there another one out there that I don't know about?
