Hey Anthony,

I haven't used it for any major development work, but I've got Ubuntu  
Intrepid running on an eeepc (I tried the eee-specific versions, but  
found that vanilla ubuntu worked just as well if not better) and have  
used it for a bit of hacking (mostly working through tutorials and  
following-along with the speaker at confereces) with no problem! No  
experience with fedora to compare to, I'm afriad, but i've found  
ubuntu to be a pretty good environment for ruby development.

Cheers,

Tim
