Somebody I know bought a similar machine (i do not remember the exact model) but ubuntu feisty did have issues with wireless card (broadcom) and display drivers (nvidia). The livecd will not start by itself. But with some effort this guy was able to install Feisty (64bit version). I don't know how the new version of Ubuntu (7.10) or other distributions will like the hardware.
