Python/JDK

[lunareffect]

Has anyone tried using Python or JDK on the aspire one? Does it work well on the 512MB RAM/8GB SSD version?

Any answers would be most appreciated =)

If you open your terminal and type in: "python", you're ready to go. So python comes pre-installed (2.5) and libraries are easily installed in advanced mode. I haven't tried to run some scripts, but I will do that today...

UPDATE:
(pygame is slow, python runs fast, so does pygtk)

python with xterm:
