I also had a lot of these questions at LSM. It turned out people were
more looking for a spin dedicated to netbooks (see UNR), they didn't
really want to know that Gnome runs perfectly fine with a small
display.

Last time I checked, we didn't have such a dedicated desktop
environment in our repositories, did I miss something ?
