If you are planning on using a netbook (which is somewhat cpu impoverished for heavy DSP stuff, but for the straight recording plus light to moderate DSP you should be fine) in conjunction with Intrepid I could not recommend it more. I am running on a MSI Wind with vanilla kernel and all the eye-candy (compiz) I can get and am yet to get a single xrun on it with built-in soundcard (haven't tried it with external yet). Only xruns I've gotten so far were if I exited a JACK app (e.g. Pd). This is on a 512x2 setting at 44.1KHz (23.2ms). P.S. Just tried Renoise 2.0 RC that was recently posted here and ran the demo song. It choked the cpu somewhere towards the end, but with O/C it ran just fine. (somewhat OT) FWIW, Renoise is truly a beautifully designed Linux audio app and I sincerely hope we'll get to see more of this kind of "polish" among the linux audio software.
