When they introduced the Everex PC's at Wal-Mart with the gOS (the company said it stood for 'good' but more likely it is 'google'), or gOS Rocket, or whatever, wouldn't this be the perfect facelift for Ubuntu for small devices?

It's got all the fav google icons (blogger, etc.) across the desktop, and is an appealling shade of green. I think it's Ubuntu underneath as notes point to using the ubuntu updates.

I was expecting this to be for the Psion Netbook!

As this is geared towards lower performance PCs, I wonder if this would run well on my old Pentium III? The standard ubuntu is a little sluggish on that machine, maybe this will help. I know that machine isn't one of these Netbooks, but it may still work okay!

BTW I don't like xfce, so this would be ideal if it works better on older machines.

Ars have had theirs up for almost a week, much the same content:

I seem to recall mentioning this a little way ago.

They should call it "Ubuntu CE".
