My eee PC is a very cool little machine.  After just a few minutes of 
following scripts that I found online, I can now bring up a full KDE 
desktop.  It's a standard x86 PC, so gvim runs just fine, and VO should 
just slip in.

There are only two downsides.  First is the 800x480 screen; many 
applications today assume at least 1024x768, so you do a lot of 
scrolling.  Second is the battery life.  I got this machine for taking 
notes, replacing my HP Jornada 820, for which I can no longer purchase 
replacement batteries.  I would routinely get 10 hours of battery life 
from the Jornada, but the eee doesn't seem to go beyond 3.  I wouldn't 
mind carrying a big old battery pack, if one were available, but for 
now, I carry two small batteries, and switch partway through meetings.
