| jedijf | pvl1: you can install very light builds of lubuntu. preparing for fosscon, i really liked crunchbang, but if you need ultra mini, you really can't go wrong with puppy or one of the puppy offshoots | 09:34 |
| pvl1 | thats for when i wake up sometime in the evening | 09:37 |
| jedijf | waltman: netbooks in general are too young to be considered vintage yet - LOL - heck, x21 - x31's were netbook-like without the 'marketing' name and are still usable | 09:39 |
