No probs.  Good luck in your search. :)

I have a bunch of old Lenovo Thinkpad Mini 10s, which were popular in schools
here - mine are surplus from a couple of schools.  I also had a couple of the
early Asus netbooks, which originally ran Xandros, but I put Debian Squeeze on
them.  They ran text mode really well, and were OK with a GUI for very basic
applications.
