Hi,
I have. It's pretty good. Just a couple of issues. It didn't say on the site that it there was no optical drive. I don't really need one but
I realised that, as you sya though it's less important nowadays with USB sticks and such.
though small it is a laptop, not netbook. I opted for one with no pre-installed OS but found that default Debian wouldn't install and I had to find the 'non-free drivers' image. I'm using Arch now and that installed without problems but I did think it a little odd that a Linux-oriented machine would require non-free. Probably the Nvidia graphics.
I did like the being able to pick and choose options, picked twin drives, SSD for root and swap, larger normal one for /home.
Thanks for the feedback, very useful. Which one did you get? I'll go for the 14" Orion if I get one.
