first impressions of the Dell 10v netbook

1. ubuntu launches with a 6 step time zone/keyboard selection etc that is not documented in either Inspiron setup guide or the Ubuntu Quick Start guide
2. either i have a stuck ‘9’ key or the keyboard driver is screwy cause i get random 9s a lot except for a little bit after i press 9
3. was able to get on my airport wlan about 2 minutes after opening the box (not including the time puzzling over the 9 thing)
4. i dont like trackpads in general but this one is pretty annoying so im sure ill be using an external mouse (though i do that with MacBook too)
5. will try the hackintosh later tonight - my first
