lightweight mmo
I'm considering buying an Asus Eee pc, a mini laptop with 7" or 8,9" screen (depending on which type you buy). It's a relatively cheap pc, which I'll be using when not at home. It's also not the fastest pc around:
The older version has 512mb RAM and 4 GB harddisk. The newer (and 33% more expensive) version has the 8,9" screen and 1GB RAM and 20GB harddisk. There's no specific great graphics card (probably something onboard) and the processor ain't Duo Core/Core 2 Duo, just a single standard processor of which I don't exactly know the speed. I'm thinking of getting the 8,9" version.
At home I play World of Warcraft, which clearly won't run on the Eee pc. So I was wondering if there are any entertaining light weight mmo's that run on the Eee pc.
I do have some things I'd like in the game: fun and casual gaming, nothing too hardcore. Friendly community. Roleplaying would be a great plus, but I can imagine it's maybe a bit too much asked. A free game (with or without itemshop) would be ace, but if it's pay to play it's fine too if it's really worth it.
Maplestory is one of the games I might wanna go play. But I was wondering what else would be recommended that works on this machine.
edit: forgot to mention: the Eee pc has wireless internet and comes with Linux. I've read that it should be able to run Windows XP, but I'll keep Linux on it.

Runescape?
ANYTHING but NOT Runescape
What I've seen from that game (years ago) totally was not what I liked to call fun. It was only the free part though. It took me 5-10 minutes of playing to find out it's rubbish to me.
Well, if you like horror genre, you could try Darkeden, but I'm not sure if you will able to run it on that pc, the graphics are not good at all, but the gameplay is.
