If you want to be able to boot up your netbook at a super fast pace, you should try Ubuntu Light. This version of Ubuntu will allow you to boot up your computers in 7 seconds flat. Even though the naming convention of the platform may be misleading, this Linux distribution is by no means light on performance. It still offers all the relevant tools that come with any standard desktop operating system, including access to a web browser and office suite, security features, and compatibility with lots of third party applications.
The tried and tested hardware that allowed Ubuntu Light to boot up in 7 seconds was a Dell Inspiron Mini 10v netbook with a 1.6GHz Intel Atom N270 processor. Given that the processor is a bit dated, I'm sure the newer netbooks would have equal if not better performance in terms of boot up times.
