I've done several installs of linux recently (Core4 and Core5). Some were completely seamless successes, some required tweaking. The biggest issue by far is WiFi networking.

Even though I've got native WiFi drivers on my  laptop, I'm still not completely satisfied with location management.

OTOH, running dual head with either separate desktops (my personal preference) or with one desktop spanning both monitors rocks. Windows will do dual heads, but I don't think you can get dual desktops without third party tools.

You were corrected on this by someone not long ago. Already forgot?
