Most early netbooks ran linpus lite which obviously isn't Ubuntu.
If it's a Toshiba NB100 which came out at the same time as the Acer
Aspire, it'll have had 8.04 LTS on it...

My Acer Aspire One is two years old, came with: Linpus; 1Gb RAM; 120Gb HDD.
It's never had a problem running the full desktop Ubuntu. Some of them at
