best "user friendly", but lightweight Linux distribution for this netbook? was just gonna throw it out anyway, put mint on it but it's still a little sluggish. I know I might be asking for alot out of a shitty machine, but I'm not doing anything with it anyway and thought I'd fuck around with it a bit. thanks

Gallium seems pretty nice, but it was designed for Chromebooks so YMMV with a netbook (I suppose).

If you're looking for something lightweight go for Arch, the Wiki has a step-by-step installation guide and there's plenty of videos out there, don't install something heavy like Gnome, go for KDE or something
Lubuntu if you're not feeling so hardcore

LXLE
Linuxlite

I had a netbook with 1GB of RAM and 1.6GHZ atom that ran these distros with no problem.
