All,

I'm looking to get a netbook, that is touchscreen capable and works out of the box or is pretty easy to setup, I don't want to spend hours and hours on the setup... A lot of info out there is kind of dated as new netbooks seem to be coming out every other week nowadays...

Ive seen these two...
Asus T101MT - looks pretty easy setup... But the reviews are not the best
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/T101MT

Lonovo ideapad s10-3t
The reviews are better but have seen people having a hard time getting the touchscreen to work with ubuntu, apparently they used some non standard hardware...

Things I'm looking for:
1) I would appreciate some insight/comments from current users of either netbook
2) alternate touch screen netbooks (that work out of the box)
3) other recommendations need to be ~500 bux

Thanks in advance for your input.
