I have been trying out Maverick Alpha3 Netbook remix version on my Asus
EeePc 900 and have set up testdrive on my workstation with some success.  I
hope to do some proper testing at the weekend so will read up on the steps.

I have enjoyed (mostly) watching the Unity interface grow day by day on the
netbook remix and am getting a good feel about it.

Thanks for the reminder.
