I already caught some flak for crossposting to -users, so I'll snip allthe advocacy bits and just hit a few points briefly.

I actually built this machine a few weeks ago. It runs NetBSD 5.1 if I
disable ACPI and NetBSD current I could install without changing
anything, but it was unstable until I set "USB controller mode" to
FullSpeed and after that it is rock solid.

Good to hear. What about 3D graphics acceleration, any problems there?That, and USB UMTS/3G modems is really the stuff I'm worrying about rightnow.

I actually kind of run Plan9... Just for fun though. See cool above.

I'm trying it out this weekend.  :-)
