Hello Elias, Just a note regarding netbooks. I've recently been in contact with System76 and their Starling netbook should run gNewSense with minimal issues. If you were to purchase one it would be useful to hear reports on how gNewSense runs on the machine (same goes for any machine).
If you don't have the forwarded emails from System76 in your inbox, you can find them here <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnewsense-dev/2009-06/msg00066.html>. Additionally the Lemote Yeeloong netbooks come with fully free software (including BIOS), reports from users in #gnewsense-dev on freenode have been somewhat positive. The machines use a MIPS processor, rather than x86/x86_64, gNewSense should run on this arch in the future (I think it is being actively worked on, but don't take my word for it). Games are something the free software community is lacking, so I would be interested in this. I started a GPL 3D game engine some months ago, although I haven't done much work on it in a long time. You may find the sources useful <http://github.com/oheard/orion> although it is written in C++, not C and is still in its infancy. The bulk of the code is related to abstracting 3D rendering from various OSs and backends, but I warn you it is hugely incomplete... Still, you may find it of interest.
