is this notebook compatible

[Keith Fox]

Anybody that has tried this notebook for use with Ubuntu please let me know. I want to install 9.10 on this machine, but want to know if it's capable of handling processes normally. I tried using GNU/Linux Mint Gloria and it was running real hot from processor and listed heavy use when nothing was running the CPU.
