Last time I attended LinuxFestNW in Bellingham WA I took 2 laptops with me:

My Ubuntu EasyPeasy EeePC (solidstate harddrive, extra big battery - it was
awesome) and my old Windows XP laptop because I couldn't bear to part with
Microsoft Streets and Trips.

I thought to myself, if only there was an equivalent for Linux....  Then I
could just take ONE computer.

Two days ago I installed it.  Yesterday I wrote it up.  Today I posted it on
the web:

Feedback welcome!
