    I was running 10.7 on my Dell Mini 9 Netbook but preferred SL, dropped back to 10.6.8, then decided to drop to Ubuntu for speed, and better XBMC capability.

    My Mini 9 was a beast - 16GB SSD for main OS, with a customised motherboard with 4 internal USB ports, each with a 16GB drive. One ran Ubuntu, the other 3 were storage.

    About £130 spent and a bit of solder, for a 9inch netbook 2GHz Intel Atom (overclocked), 2GB RAM, internal Bluetooth, 3G and 80GB (closer to 70 really as 5 drives at '16gb' is less) of Solid State Storage.

    I tried reinstalling OSX the other day but followed the guide slightly wrong so it wouldn't boot, and decided I'd stick with Ubuntu anyway.
