I ordered one for a friend - it arrived about a week ago with Mandrake installed. It auto detected everything and appears to work quite well. If you want a quick look-see at it this weekend then drop me a line. I have to deliver it next week but there's no reason that we can't try a quick install of something before then. IMHO it looks really nice for the money ...
