Hey,

Got an acer aspire one in tesco the other day (€210 with all the discounts!), and installed xp pro over the very limited linux distro that came with it. Just wondering what would be the best client to use for such a lightweight machine? it only has 512mb ram and 8gb SSD drive so really looking for somthing that dosn't use much system resources or memory.

Thanks
