I recently purchased this laptop, primarily for school, and was wondering if anyone around here has had any experience with it or a similar bit of hardware. Not a big fan of Windows 8 so I would like to toss Ubuntu on it if possible, so I was hoping someone around here would be able to give me any sort of heads-up about potential head aches associated with the switch, as I don't have a lot of free time to be mucking about with configurations and settings or fighting with the touch pad. Any help is good help, thanks guys.
