Thanks for the people who gave me advice on this. I've ended up getting an Acer Aspire One - 1GB of RAM, 8GB SSD - which is happily runing Fedora 11. http://danny.oz.au/tech/notes/acer-aspire-one-original.html
If SSD prices drop I'd be tempted to put a faster SSD in there, and I might buy a 6-cell battery, but otherwise it's an excellent package. Danny. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
