I bought one with Linspire installed.  I took  the netbook on holiday with me 
and was compelled by an almost non-existant network connection to use 
Linspire for two weeks.  <shudder>  

I promised the netbook Debian Lenny as soon as we got home.

It likes it as much as I do. ;-)

Only problem:  I needed a backported kernel and backported wicd to get 
wireless going.  Otherwise out of the box.
