Have this little shit, and want to install arch.
>Atom N450 1.66 Ghz
>GMA 3150
>2 GB RAM
is it a good idea to have a bleeding edge distro on this machine? or should i go for something more stable?

If you can't even answer this simple question yourself (and see how inane it sound) you better install the OS it came with (I'm betting Windows 7).

Seeing as you have such a noob question about Arch, I think you should install Antergos instead and use Openbox. Yes, Arch should run very well on that netbook.

so you mean a stable release would be better?
currently running kubuntu 14.04 on it (i know just tested it and it stayed like this)

nah don't like mint kinda like the idea to have just what i need, thats why arch came to my mind.

Xfce is good but as it comes to ram Mate is better
