I have been looking into this kind of thing myself. What I found is
that getting an Atom nettop computer would be a significant downgrade
in performance (from my Pentium M). Both in performance and
power/Watt. Also, GMA900 on the EEEs is slow enough that rendering
webpages is not very smooth.

I'm not a proficient C coder but I managed to hack this patch together.
With this, you can set the starting search string to something else then an

Because netbooks and laptops aren't ergonomic.

Hi there,
I discussed several stuff on IRC recently but wanted to share my thoughts here.
1. One idea is getting rid of the dwm bar altogether and to print the
dwm state to stdout when it changes, however after thinking carefully
about it I conclude that having the bar build-in is definately a

I use a laptop with a 21,6 external motinor, keyboard, mouse, etc. It
is like a normal computer but more silent :) and energy efficient.

There is a middle way solution. I just thought about it, and will
probably have its drawbacks, but here it goes: keep a bar with only
the tags and tile symbol and print the sel client title to stdout.
This way you can use an external program (dzen) to render

Please keep bar, that's why dwm is great out of the box.
