(I used the Flight 7 dapper desktop installation) * Centrino Duo works fine (install the linux-smp or 686 kernel packages) * ATI 3D Acceleration works fine (using xorg-driver-fglrx 8.24.8) * XGL/Compiz is running fine with some tweaks so it doesn't freezes * The top of the screen is made entirely of Magnesium Alloy for lightness and resillient which gives it an extremely cool look also :) === Cons === * Gets a little hot sometimes on the keyboard, nothing out of the ordinary though. === Pictures === Pictures I found on the net were for the 5672 model which have just about the same look, only with a bigger monitor - a 15.4" WXGA. * FRONT: {{http://img2.zol.com.cn/product/3_450x337/109/ceiUwhcrZXXs.jpg}} * Keyboard: {{http://www.pconline.com.cn/notebook/price/cq/0605/pic/acer-zy060510-2.jpg}} * Laptop (it's the middle one!): {{http://www.pc3w.com/Files/UpFiles/2006/1/200611645417753.JPG}}
