The installation is less user friendly than on the mainstream
architectures, but once that's done it's just another linux with KDE.
What you may run into:
- no flash, no realplayer, no acrobat (use kpdf), no java plugin
- invest in a 2 or 3 button mouse (standard USB mice should work)
- when you do telephone support, be aware that the keyboard looks
differently ;-), and check if the keyboard shortcuts you want to be
available (if any) do actually work.
cheers,
Sonja
