I took my copy of rev 2.9 for linux on a usb stick to the computer store, and stuck it in the AA1. And at least on first glance everything worked (well, everything I tried which was not that much admittedly). Getting Rev going with no obvious errors was enough to convince me to buy it. When I

I'm planning on getting the Acer One (AA1) and looking to do all my Rev development on it (don't ask...) The AA1 has been favourably compared against all the Asus umpc's and the HP mini-note. http://www.osnews.com/story/20176/Review_Acer_Aspire_One
