With the flash drive version you use one of the SD slots to increase your storage - and it stays beautifully light at under 1kg. Putting a hdd drive in takes it up to about 1.3kg - still a fraction of the weight of a normal laptop. I bought an EeePC 701 a year ago. The reason I went for the AA1 rather than another EeePC was that the keyboard is better. I understand that the latest EeePCs have a larger keyboard, but then you are talking many more $s. The original had a 7" screen, which is cramped but workable, but it was the keyboard that was the biggest problem for me. It's very cramped. Fedora will run just fine on either brand. HTH Anne
