Best netbooks for Debian.

The ones that are sold here are:

Acer aspire One
MSI wind 100 and 123
Asus 1000 and 1005HA
Samsung NC10

Which of these are better for running Debian?

Thank you!

Oh this depends on the hardware details of each system.
Did you already had a look at http://www.linux-on-laptops.com or http://www.tuxmobile.org

But I would recommend the Acer manufacture. A lot of people faced debian on this vendor.

Debian ran great with my Acer Aspire One. I did a netinstall and used LXDE for environment. There is a good wiki for installing debian.

Currently I have Mandriva, Gnome version, and it runs pretty good on it also.

I don't know about running Debian, but the Samsung NC10 came out best a few months ago in a comparative review in one of the Linux magazines. I'm a bit tempted to get it...

Thanks for your replies! What about the Asus eee 1005ha plus? Does any of you own one of this?

Thanks!
