Well, I finally got around to getting a Ubuntu 7.10 install going on my new EeePc (http://eeepc.asus.com/). 7 inches of GIS goodness after installing some base GIS software and then building the svn head of QGIS. I have a quick post on my blog:

As well as a quick video screen cast of using it. Lots of opportunity for a very small, very portable, very inexpensive field data collection tool, or ultra mobile GIS workstation.

Everything installed without a hitch and it is amazing what you can do with such a little machine... I still cant believe it!
