Pros: Easy install, all Hardware detected
Cons: minor issues with rpmdrake


I installed it on my compaq presarion v4000 notebook, and although the install time was lengthy (about 45 mins), everything worked out of the box, and every plugins i need were easily installed via rpmdrake. I however needed to update, rebuild the db a few times to install packages :( a part from that, this is an excelent platform.
