eeebuntu: yet another Ubuntu-based build for the Eee PC

Another good tip from Robert found its way to my inbox: I'm sure there's Eee PC owner or two out there that will appreciate it. There's a new and "eeemproved" Ubuntu distro that's customized for the Eee called eeebuntu. You can go with the snazzy Compiz Fusion enabled gnome version or go plain-vanilla with the Ubuntu Netbook Remix packages. Performance looks pretty darn good on the original 701 4G model Eee PC too: just check it in the above vid and supply your own audio track. I made mine funny, but feel free to make serious commentary when you watch.

Some of what's included in this distro:

• Working WiFi... always a must
• A simple and effective program launcher (shown below)
• OpenOffice Suite 2.4
• Pidgin, Skype and aMSN
• Amorak, Gtkpod and VLC for media
• Firefox 3.0.1 for everything else. OK, I'm biased there but that's because I'm boycotting client apps for a while.
• 
  

You can grab the distro at the eeebuntu project page to give it a go.
