Hi,
I am planning to install ubuntu on my 2 yrs old notebook.
Its a 11" machine with Intel U7600 and 2G RAm.
Which version ubuntu is better is better for this machine
(Kubuntu, xfce, remix) ?
My preference is the Kubuntu. But I am afraid that its too
heavy for my tiny machine.
Any comment and feedback are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

You have plenty of memory on the computer. The CPU speed of 1.2GHz is a little marginal, but I think KDE/Kubuntu will be acceptable on it.

You probably can't run a Live CD, but if you could make a bootable USB stick with Kubuntu, from the ISO, then you could test it before you install. "usb-creator" for Windows would be one way.
