Thanks, I'm looking forward to install Lucid on my new notebook.

Could you tell us the specs of the netbook used?

Also, is that Jennifer at the back? :D

@Osni01 That is the Asus Eee 701.

The girl at the back is Kim Kardashian

@kdskamal Hmm I was deciding about whether to install the Desktop or Netbook release, but seeing as it works so well with a Celeron M 900Mhz / 512MB based netbook, I'll just stick with the Desktop version!

Ty again ;)

@Osni01 I have upgraded its RAM to 2GB :)

@teejayandrade You should it's free and if you don't want to get rid of windows you can install side bye side with windows.
