Netbooks for hacking and development?
saundby: I use an EEE 701. I mostly work at the command line with Vi for programming. Occasionally I'll look at code in KWrite. If I need an IDE, I often use Arachnophilia, which is a pretty stripped down but easy to configure IDE that recognizes syntax for a number of languages.You can also use Eclipse or NetBeans, but it takes a lot of configuring. For myself, I ended up taking both off my drive, since I found that I was doing most of my work in a terminal window even after I'd cleared up a reasonable amount of screen space in both.It depends on what you want from your dev environment.And if distraction is a problem, turn off wireless. ;)
