I have two laptops one is a Acer Aspire One D270-1466. The other is a HP Notebook 2000. The Acer is currently running Ubuntu 12.10 32 bit and the HP is running Linux Mint 14 MATE 64 bit. I'm perfectly fine with Mint 14 on my HP but there is one annoying problem with it. Sometimes when I turn it on I get a black screen that hangs until I turn it off using the switch. Sometimes I have to boot multiple times to get it to start but once it does it works fine. It's only a minor issue but I'd love to fix it or install a better OS. For my Acer. Ubuntu starts fast with no issues but I really despise the Unity interface. I know that there must be a more efficient OS for my Acer. It's only a netbook not really that powerful so as long as it's secure, up to date, use word like apps, read PDFs, and quickly access the net. I'm fine as long as it's fast. Ubuntu is fine right now though, it's certainly faster than than Windows 7 Starter ever was.
