(but also a great PITA to set up correctly).
Mind you, getting the appropriate parts might be even more expensive than £350

James,
My Samsung NC10 works fine using Opensuse 11.1 (KDE 3.5) and some minor
tweaks. I also have Fedora 10 installed on it which appears to work ok but I
haven't really soaktested it.
There are also a number of sites that show Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04 working ok.
