If there is room for complaining then that would be:
1) 1024x600 resolution at times is cumbersome as some dialogs/apps by
default have windows that don't allow resizing below ~650 pixels height-wise
(cough, cough, ardour mixer? :-) making it a bit annoying to deal with as
taskbars end-up covering the ok/cancel buttons
I use DebianEEE with Xfce on my EeePC900. You can auto-hide the taskbar
so it pops up when you move the cursor to the bottom. You can do this
with KDE too.
I know it still leaves at least 50px hidden, but it helps. Avidemux has
the same problem.
