LXDE distro’s are by far the best for netbooks. At least for the early celeron ASUS EEE’s. Mint LXDE is looking promising, but at this time I have to vote for LUBUNTU for netbooks. I am sure Mint will catch up in near future.

If you want a really light distro for netbooks, try PUPPEEE. It runs perfectly from a 512 MB SD Card on my EEE 900.

On newer/better hardware other Mint distro’s are simply the best you can get.

I have a question. Do virtualbox still have bugs running in Linux mint? because I was unable to run virtual machines without having troubles

Will I really be tempted by Linux Mint to give up Ubuntu. I hope so – I just don’t like the way it has gone (Unity).
I hope Mint doesn’t go the way of Ubuntu; or at least not till Unity is much, much better.

@mikhtar_one: The default app selection is a bit different. Smaller and lighter applications were used when deemed appropriate.

@Snow.Metal: Yes it should run swimmingly on a netbook.
