Thanks for sharing the information. So what is the conclusion on this? I apologize if this has already been answered by someone - I am new to this list and hence I may fail to understand the way things work here.
For now should we just keep track of the EeePC? http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEeePC/Status
I know the entire Debian community is now busy pushing out Lenny (Woohoooo!!! - I am waiting for it too :D), but is there any plan to have something like what Ubuntu Net Remix (UNR)?
Thank you all for your time.
