Unless those apps are in Joli's repository, you'll probably want to go with Ubuntu, which has a much higher likelihood of having them available. If all else fails, you can get the compilers and build the apps yourself.

I liked you "AOL for netbooks" analogy; that sums up what I like about it. I don't use the device often enough, and I don't enjoy using it when I do, so I wanted a distro that did everything for me.

My lappys and pcs, however, are all Slackware, all the time
