The Dell Mini 10 comes with Ubuntu installed as an option for $300. This
should tell you it runs Linux. ;) I've not used on personally but I've
read positive reviews of them. The Latitude 2100 is the business Netbook
for a little more. I can speak highly for Dell support when it comes to
the Lat's.
