komputes:
Can you confirm that cat /proc/cpuinfo on a stock Xandros install on a 70x 
reports 900 Mhz after the model name of a stock Xandros install? If so I was 
most definitely mistaken in my comment above but it seems unusual to me that 
they wouldn't simply default it to the faster speed in the BIOS...

As for a cpu scaling interface, there was talk about adding one for the
90x series and there were patches on the LKML list too
http://groups.google.com/group/fa.linux.kernel/browse_frm/thread/ef73483027f10c3b/137adbac167c1202?#137adbac167c1202
. Now I reread the thread there is speculation that it might work on
701s with later BIOSes but nothing conclusive. Just for the record,
which BIOS version are you using?

Having a slower clock speed won't completely stop people installing
Ubuntu on slower eees though, so I don't think that is a fair argument.
Your other points appear to be bang on though.
