Given that EeePC701 has pretty low specs, you should be looking at something lightweight. Personally I have my Eee running Debian Linux with LXDE desktop environment. I think that LinuxMint would also work well, but don't try to install a version with heavy desktop environments such as KDE or Gnome... Also go with 32bit versions.
