netbook recommendation

[ikt]

Hi guys and girls

Fairly simple request but I'm having a hard time finding the answer, basically just looking for a netbook with linux preloaded that isn't a gimpy underpowered screen with a keyboard attached.

main specs:
10" screen,
2gb+ ram,
intel atom or amd equivalent cpu
decent size keyboard
64gb+ ssd hard drive
linux PRE-loaded

Does one exist? It would also be nice if they ship to Australia :X

Cheers

I'm pretty sure there is NOT a laptop that comes with a solid state drive over 40GB. Good place to start is here:

The EeePC 1000 is close to what you might be looking for. 10" screen. 92% full keyboard. Atom processor. Up to 2GB RAM. 40GB SSD (8+32). Xandros standard. Unfortunately, Xandros sucks. Very, very buggy. I considered leaving it on mine until I used it for about five minutes. That'll convince you to put Ubuntu NBR on it.

Don't mind if it has Xandros, so long as it's +1 in the linux camp, and not in the MS camp :0

Just reporting back that I'm having a lot of trouble being able to purchase it.

Almost all stores selling netbooks are 100% xp

If anyone knows where I can get one (Australia) please reply back :>

My MSI wind 200 works great with Ubuntu Netbook remix 9.04

look at system76 ... they have a decent netbook-sized offer.

I use a MSI wind in 3-boot configuration
