Its a bit more work, and sound and the modem don't work as they are dependant on I2C bus....what that means I am not all that sure. this is my first mac. There are people working on it. Hopefull soon sound at least will be a reality. Everything else is really amazing. Decent performance....incredible battery life. Usb, cdrom,dvd,cdr,airport,10/100,Xfree 4.1 acceleration of video card all are workign well. If you are not new to Linux then I whole heartedly endorse the new iBooks. If you are new......it could pose a very steep learning curve. John Hughes
