ports (only 2 of which are 2.0 I think). The on-board wireless networking is useful and works well, other features that I ve not used include firewire and a Sony memory stick drive. The lack of a serial port could annoy some users. I ve also set this up with a Linux kernel - difficulties here involve changing the brightness of the display (done in XP by specialist sony software) and changing the volume (for the same reasons). I had to NDISwrap the wireless driver to get that to work. The 0.5 gig of RAM is reasonable, but annoyingly comes in 2x256M modules so you have to change both to get more memory.
