    have a 700 that came with Xandros. The problem I eventually encountered   
   was a lack of support for WPA2 and Xandros did not upgrade. It was not a   
   hardware problem. Last year I installed Q4OS and it was able to get on the   
   network.   
      
   It took a couple of attempts. Given the minimal hardware you can't be too   
   ambitious when selecting a DE. Trinity works but not KDE. A RAM upgrade   
   would help but I didn't take the experiment that far.
