    I was just about to go for the Eee 901, but this Acer One looks very cool. From reading the various threads on this forum, it seems that the SSD version doesnt run XP too well. Im thinking of maybe the 120gb linux version with 1gb Ram (I already have an XP licence). I assume i wouldnt need to nlite it.

    Is the 120gb hdd version going to be ok with XP?

    Actually the SSD is only a bottleneck if it is the Intel SSD as I have the samsung SSD and it run's XP SP3 very well I am quite happy.
