  1. Ubuntu seems like too much of a system hog for a netbook, specially with Unity 3D. I'd look at something more like Lubuntu (which allows you to select the Lubuntu or Lubuntu Netbook session). I'd also look at Peppermint and Joli OS. But, Ubuntu is a hard sell for a netbook. Specially the earlier models, which shipped with XP.
