Hi,
I found a Sony notebook that have very impressive spec (in spanish: http://www.sony.com.mx/corporate/MX/...VS13A25PL.html).
I really like that hardware so I'd like to buy it. Of course, my idea is to throw Windows 8 as soon as the computer boots for the first time and install Linux. Before doing that I made a quick internet search about this notebook and linux and found little (the model si quite new); unfortunately, the little I found is problems, like being unable to charge the battery more than 80%, not being able to control keyboard illumination, nVidia graphics card not working, etc. The problem is that I don't know anybody with a Sony Vaio and Linux, so I don't know if that problems can be solved somehow or is better not to buy that computer.
Any comment will be appreciated
