That's the netbook I'm going to get cause its super cheap: I couldn't find anything on google about its wireless card, thats the only real thing i'm worried about (What chipset type it is like broadcom or something like that and whether it will work on it). Maybe a more seasoned Google searcher could find it for me?

Looks pretty good. The wireless is supported in kernel 2.6.35. Install eee-control to get hotkeys working. The only problem is that it says that it's out of stock. Maybe you could try getting one of those new dual-core Atom netbooks?

Yeah I just realized it was out of stock it was in stock like 3 seconds ago but i posted a new link in the original post: Its another eee pc just need to know if it has the same wireless card and my limit is 200 bucks - otherwise i would be getting this one: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Acer-AO521-3530/14575767
Also hyper threading is more than enough for me ;p (Atom N270 has Hyper Threading)

You know, most netbooks don't have many linux problems. Broadcom has a driver integrated into 2.6.35, if you're worried. It works OK, from what I've heard. I'd just get anything that fits your budget.
200 bucks? I'd spend my money on something like a game console.
