With the Atom-based ASUS Eee PC 901 we have already delivered
disk encryption benchmarks and a Linux distribution comparison of
Xandros, Fedora, Ubuntu, and Mandriva. This Intel 1.6GHz Diamondville
processor isn't the fastest, but it's performing quite well for a
netbook. With netbooks and their users often on the go though, for those
not using the suspend and resume mode the boot time can be equally
important as the in-desktop performance. To look at this we are
delivering boot performance benchmarks for the Eee PC 901 from Fedora 9,
Fedora 10, Ubuntu 8.10, and Mandriva 2009.
