I needed to replace my old Gateway netbook so I gave this one a try, and liked it so much I immediately bought a second for my partner.  The first thing I did for both was to rip out Windows and put a proper OS in place, in this case Arch Linux, which installed without a single hiccup.Admittedly this is not a powerful computer.  However, for daily tasks (web, email, IM, music/video, office, web editing, coding) it's pretty ideal.  It's very light, has excellent battery life and a responsible keyboard, and with a lightweight DE (i3 or xfce) it doesn't give me any trouble even with several dozen browser tabs open.In short, a great little computer for my needs at a great price.
