My main laptop is eeePC 700 2g surf, and it runs arch perfectly. Using a 
lightweight wm with allot of lightweight software I have no complains.

Tough the touchpad works the way it should, I don't really like using a 
touchpad much, or a mouse for that matter. So allot of keybindings for all 
possible tasks, and a tiling wm (but I also use fluxbox and openbox allot) 
works best for me.

Only problem I have is sometimes suspend/wake doesn't work, but I'm working on 
that.
