"If you're looking for Ubuntu powered netbook that is as
beautiful outside as it is inside then prepare to coo over the
latest 'Starling' netbooks to hatch from the nest of
Ubuntu-dedicated hardware company System76…
"Starling Netbook
"First off let's get the boring bit out of the way: As netbooks
go, the Starling is atypical of its competitors - Atom, RAM, Screen
size. Counting against it slightly are a standard 3 Cell battery
which will see you eek out 3.5 hours at best and the inclusion of
0.3MP webcam which, compared to most other netbooks, it pretty
subpar. But at a base price of only $389, a gorgeous exterior and
guaranteed compatibility from the off - including suspend and
resume - it's more than a match for it's competitors."
