<PRE>Just a quick summary of recent experiences on test machine.

Alienware X51 : i7-2600 : 8Gb : nVidia GTX 555 : SATA 1 TB

grub boot in legacy mode               OK
ethernet = Realtek RTL8111/8168B       Worked out of the box
wireless = Atheros AR9285              Worked with some problems
                                        Too flaky to continue with.  Drops
                                        out at inconvenient times
                                        like in the middle of an update.
display  = Geforce GTX 55 (OEM)        XFdrake, nvidia 295.40 worked fine
login    = GNOME Classic               OK, but skipped on reboots
                                        Feature or bug?
optical drive is a Bluray combo        CD/DVD works out of the box
                                        Other functions not tested

Logins and reboots are very fast
Session properties not accurately remembered over reboots
   GTK2 versus GTK3 perhaps?
Mounted media do not show up on the desktop (as icons)

ssh works fine
