I wanted to use crunchbang (#!) on my little eeePC but sadly it either failed to load to the SSD drive or failed to pick up the wifi (in Statler) for some reason that I could never fathom, so I opted for Xubuntu and set it up to at least "look" like #!, and it works like a dream. Smallish footprint, updated from 10.04 to 10.10 with no problems, just works.
Anyway, that by way of an introduction, nice to be here, been following this group for a few months now, and really like some of the discussions.
