Oh!  Thanks for that info.  Indeed we're running F17 on it (Samsung 5 series IIRC) without any issues at all.  Fedora may work great on it, but this old dog isn't adapting so well to the new tricks of these touchy-clicky things.  Oh well, praise be the new days where it all just works vs. the old days where you prayed the most critical bits worked.  =)
