Okay, just checking Comet's website, after laughing at the fact someone 
installed Vista Ultimate on a Linux based Aspire One and called 
themselves a 'computer engineer' (yeah right, any computer engineer who 
knows what they're doing wouldn't put Vista on one of these things!) and 
I found this...

New netbook from Toshiba, running Ubuntu! (well it says Linux on the 
Comet site, but according to a Google search it's got Ubuntu pre-installed).

Bit past my price range though considering it's only 512MB.  If it was 
£200 I'd get one.
