It is good. I put some details in my link (ubuntuforums). 11.04 live
USB worked well as far as I could see, also 10.04.2 live usb.
The things I noticed as not best were the small (therefore light
weight) battery capacity, and the two (only) usb slots, no card slots
either. Display looks good to me. I am delighted with it.
Just out of interest, why would you need more than 2 USB ports.
I tend to use a usb mouse, I might often boot from live usb, and
frequently use a separate data usb stck. but it is pretty easy to use
a bluetooth mouse, if I had one...
It is a thin laptop, and I can see that it might be quite difficult to
find economic places around an almost non existent edge. I suppose I
have gotten used to the chunky eeepc 900, with three usb slots, (but
no bluetooth).
