I bought this notebook from abroad (Brazil), without knowing what I was going to receive, and I was very surprised! The machine is very classy, and the 3Gb RAM memory provides excelent performance. I'm very please with my purchase, and recomend this machine for all those that might be in doubt about it.

I am running Ubuntu 8 on my CR420E. It works nice. Unfortunately the "Instant Mode" media playing relies on the Windows Vista partition. I would recommend carefully backing up the hard drive raw image and moving to a dual boot scenario to retain "Instant Mode" capability, at a cost of a chunk of drive space.
I've had no issues with the Linux driver support for the Intel chipset. I have not fully used the wireless, but 'iwlist scan' does pick up a list of the neighbors' private networks. So it appears to probably all work. The video, sound, USB, keyboard, trackpad, and SD card reader all work great.
I am not sure how to poll the battery life, but I run mine off the outlet at home so I don't care.
A few quick points on a pretty nice, but arguably not as nice as it is pricy laptop:
Pro: Nice keyboard action, and most of the "function" modified keys are laid out intuitively (home and end = left and right for example). I used similar CR-320Es at local retailers before ordering

I'm sick of slow computers, computers that get viruses even when you have the protection, bugs, etc. This computer was an awesome buy, and it's also stylish. the windows vista took some getting used to, but it really is a great computer
