I have used Acer Aspire One for three years now. It was very easy to install good programs like Gimp, Skype, gedit, mysqlserver, php5, apache, OpenOffice and so on the the original Linpus machine. I even installed Mobile Broadband with Huawei E169 but that was not easy.
However I changed to Ubuntu and it worked very well.
Today I have installed Fedora 14 -i386 and the machine is perfect. I connect to mobile Broadband through Huawei E1820 without problems which was not possible with Ubuntu.
I do like my Aspire One with LINUX
