I tried NR on my Acer netbook and wasn't moved at all. Don't like the interface and it is <BR>
as slow as molasses on a cold winter day in the arctic. Also couldn't get the proper <BR>
aspect ratio out-of-it. Haven't returned to it since...been meaning to try Fedora on it...<BR>

I've used the Ubuntu Netbook Remix on an HP Mini and I didn't like it.
I ended up using the default Ubuntu Gnome. I made the bottom panel
very thin and set it to auto hide. I left the top panel visible
though. What I really didn't like about UNR was having to go back to
the main desktop to see the apps. It really felt like I could only run
one app at a time. I know I was running more but it just felt that
way. You should give it a try and see what you think but I'd say most
people on this list will probably feel limited by it.
