subject: Xubuntu Netbook Considerations

Hey All,

First time poster in this echo.

Anyone here successfully setup a netbook to run under Xubuntu or similar
distro?

I am looking to setup a simple and light portable netbook to use around the
house mainly as a simple client machine when I do not want to have to sit at
my main PC. 

Ideally I would like to just be able to run Xubuntu on it and have the
following basic functionality / features if possible:
- Wifi
- Bluetooth
- USB

As a bonus if it was able to stream Steam Games / and RDP Sessions from my
main Windows PC as well that would be fantastic.

If anyone has any had any experience trying to set this up -- I would greatly
appreciate any feedback / things learned from the experience to hopefully
point me in the right direction.

Thanks all!
