I guess "usable" is in the eyes of the beholder. > If you try to use it as you would a high-powered laptop, you could be > disappointed, but I don't see this resource hunger you speak of. If I run the same workload with xfce on my netbook or tablet then its way faster and it feels snappy even with things like libreoffice open. If I do it with Gnome 3 then the battery life dives, the machine is sluggish, sometimes the UI stalls and jerks (I guess the compositor) and it becomes unpleasant to use, This is even after a few minutes before the resource leaks in the current Gnome shell become a factor too.
