From experience with machines of similar specs, the Linutop will run much more efficiently with Vector.

On the Linutop, VectorLinux would be twice as fast as Xubuntu.

I guess the question "Yeah, but does it run Linux?" is already answered here.
Sorry, couldn't resist ...

how about this? Plan A: we contact the manufacturers, and hope that works. Plan B: we purchase a review.demo unit and install VL on it. and publish our own review. that way we can share in revenue from the hardware sales originating on our site. Plan C: some how come up with money for Plan B  well basically, if we demonstrate on one unit that we are much better than Xubuntu etc.. i hope the manufacturers will wake up and smell the coffee metvas, what is the response so far like? |

I don't know. They're cute, but would I really want a computer with just a 10 gig drive and 128 megs of RAM? And a USB 1.1 port??? Welcome to 1998!
I can think of better ways to spend $99.
