for additional info

shoved a Ubuntu 8.04 disk in, installed in 25 mins, all working including wifi, sound, native res screen picked up automagically, built in memory card reader, in fact everything I can see any use for is all up and working.

I have installed the non GPL Nvidia 3D drivers so have full acceleration available which took about 3 clicks and 2 mins, no discs or anything.

Only got to test the firewire card and the bluetooth
