Fully Featured???
At $579 for a tubby (5.3lbs and a mind blowing 1.4" thick) laptop with mediocre specs (2G, slow 5400 rpm HD, low end 14" screen, onboard shared memory video, no GNIC, and no WiFi) this is hardly a "showboat" for Linux (the 90's called - they'd like their hardware demo back).
No wonder Linux gets the "ugly cousin" treatment from most IT Dept's.
I'll take a nice speedy shiny sleek slim Windows Laptop and run the few app's that Linux does better in a VM.
