I am loving it. I also do hope that both of you took advantage of the LUG discount program that they offer. Neither of my desktop machines even know how to boot a M$ OS anymore. I still have it on my old laptop to occasionally run a propritary power systems analysis program that will only run there, but all the rest of the time I run Xandros on it too and EVERYTHING just works. I am considering buying a new Acer Ferrari soon as well and it will be running Xandros too. Giovanni, I would post a message on the Xandros forums regarding your printer and also drop a note to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and see if someone can help.
