EEE-cleansing

Dear Interwebs,

I am selling my old EEE (which has some Issues, though is still functional) and want to delete all my user data from it, whilst leaving a functional OS (currently Ubuntu) and giving the new user something to start from.

Google encourages me to do a factory reset using F9, but this doesn't do anything. Nor does the reset button, though I may not be using it correctly.

I'm now looking at santize, userdel etc. -- but am not clear on what this will leave me with.

Assuming there is nothing on this EEE that I need to keep, what would you recommend?

(Answers by Sunday evening please, eBay free listing ends tomorrow night!)
