At the installfest on Saturday a guy was running CrunchBang on an Asus Eee 
1000HE (or rough equivalent).  It looked pretty sweet.  What have the rest 
of you discovered about the Eee machines and Linux distros?  Is there a 
favorite of most users?  Comparative reviews?  I think I'm going to get 
one (maybe 1005HA) and see how it goes.
