FWIW, my netbook switched to Fuduntu (
fuduntu.org) some time ago and it
seems like a really good fit, especially if you prefer GNOME 2.
My workstations are still Fedora, and I'm awkwardly trying to learn KDE
because I can't stomach GNOME 3. But Fuduntu seems to be designed with a
mind toward the netbook.

I don't expect to be using Win8, let alone Win7 for a year or so. Gives me
more time to get really comfortable with the Tablet-style GUI. Been at it
for about a year now.

I knew Pournelle back in the 70s; never really got to trust him. But he
often does get some things right. :)
