Just installed it and "out of the box" it works simply amazing! The only drivers that are missing are the SD card and the Battery. It also left me with 5.5GB of free space on a full install.

I've got Windows 7 (build 7000) installed. After a bit of work, everything looks good in Device Manager. It works great - very snappy. No problems encountered so far.

I'm dual booting with XP on a 16GB SSD. I created an 8.44GB partition for Windows 7. After installing, the Windows 7 partition has 1.34GB free.

I've got 1GB of RAM (the 2GB upgrade is in the mail).

Windows Experience Index:
Processor - 2.2
Memory - 4.5
Graphics - 2.3
Gaming graphics - 3.0
Primary hard disk - 2.0

The primary hard disk number seems low. For what it's worth, I have drive compression turned off.

Again for what it's worth, my Windows 7 partition is NTFS formatted. I wonder if FAT32 would have been a better choice.
