One vote for EEE. My 701 has survived tens and tens of shows with no
problem. Audio out is good enough for live sound, but on input
channels there is something weird going on. So if you need those, then
would think twice or maybe I have bad one. Have mostly used some LXDE
Ubuntu although now I have a command line only install on it as I can
hear sound without seeing what is going on.
