Light as you can get AND linux friendly: that's exactly what I was looking for. I am now the very happy owner of a sub-2 pounds, Ubuntu certified, 12.1" laptop for 6 month, and that the best notebook choice I ever made. Right choice for me, but I am only on the road 5 to 6 days a month, so your mileage may vary if you are really a nomad worker.
