Seems like ArchLinux is great for old hardware but not really suitable for my spanking new hardware ;-)
Having said that, I'm also looking to change my Linux distro on my Dell netbook - currently, I've got Ubuntu but I find it bloated so I've been looking at Jolicloud and PuppyLinux, as well as Ubuntu Netbook edition of course, but should ArchLinux be a candidate as well? My Dell netbook is "old" for a netbook, as I bought it the second month Dell ever did netbooks and of course, netbooks aren't really powerful to start with (compared to current laptops) so I guess ArchLinux might be suitable for it, assuming it copes well with the netbook environment (can I install it from a USB stick for instance?). -- Next meeting: Bournemouth?
