Right, after some success with the 701 image being dropped onto the 900 to make it English, I decided to look at Ubuntu for the Eee.  The image took about 10 minutes to prepare and about 30 to install - not bad considering.  Sound works out of the box as does wireless -

With the addition of a couple of packages, full updates and a little tweaking, it works very well.  The killer app "Frozen Bubble" has been installed and Citrix works.  Email works.  Web works.  Ubuntu even has a page to help you out with issues.....

Only Skype does not work perfectly.  Donaldo will just have to not hear from her big sis'
