I would certainly not consider running gentoo or freebsd and rebuilding
world.
However my aspire one serves as a very chep, v small, v quiet and low
power dhcp/dns/monitoring server. Add one usb2ps2 converter, and one
connection to a kvm or an ssh connection, and its crapped keyboard is no
longer a problem :)

I have a ~$1000 acer laptop and an acer aspire one.
The former is utter garbage, the later is really nice.
Brother has an aspire running Linux for wife. Works well from what I
can see. It is not exactly stressed though, would not want to compile
a kernel on it. Pentium 100 it was an overnight job, ah the good old
