The Acer UMPC uses a Federa offshoot called Linpus Lite.
Asus Eee uses a Debian(>Xandros)> Ubuntu> custom-for-Asus Linux
Remix adds packages, I think.

So any clear advantages?

The Acer UMPC with 1.6 ghz Atom and 9" screen sells for $400.
The same by Asus is $600 with Xp.

So which is the winner?

Other UMPCs? gOS ?
