Recently I have bought an Acer AO-751H. All were OK excepting that KVM (kernel virtual machine) said that intel-VT was locked by the BIOS. I was already about shitting bricks when I saw that Acer had released a new BIOS version, 3210. I flashed it, and discovered KVM warning to had been swept away from logs. Now my AO751 runs two operatig systems simultaneously: win-xp and debian (gnu) linux.
I use win-xp for some reasons: to run CADs for electronics and microcontrollers design. My wife and me also use stolen MS-word, because in our country many people suffer from MS installed directly in brain. Surely, we should never buy MS-Word to see some formulae from our scientific staff. We use TeX, of course.
Now I plan to set up an Ubuntu Karmic, because of it has an easy support of GMA-500 intel video card.
