Rob, You may remember replying to a post of mine last week about the Acer.
I bought mine from a Tesco store for the same price as Tesco direct, although it is cheaper at amazon and play.com. It has 1 GB ram and a 120GB hard drive. I installed Ubuntu eee (which is v8.04) via usb stick and everything just worked. The only drawback is the volume of the sound, some people might want it louder. There is a workaround, but I understand v8.10, with a later version of alsa, will fix this so it's not a problem for me.
