Current Issues
The pre-packaged bcm43xx drivers for the built-in wireless NIC do not work. I was able to get the wireless to work using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297092

Notes
The ONLY issue I've had with this laptop is the built-in wireless card. Everything else works right out of the box.
