[ubuntu-uk] Toshiba NB100-11r netbooks

2013-02-25 Thread Mark Fraser

I would echo the advice to go for 12.04 using one of the lighter variants e.g Lubuntu or Xubuntu. As a tip based on my own experience, when you advertise the netbooks don't specify which OS they are running. Anything other than Windows is likely to put some people off following it up, but if
