I've just booted the live CD on my P4 1.8GHz, 512MB box, and browsing the engadget web site to post this message was horrendously painful. I assume it is the lack of hard drive installation, but wow, I have less issues with my IPAQ 4150 when reading engadget.
It had a problem setting the wired LAN DHCP delivered address, but an 'Ctrl-Alt-F1' to a root shell, followed by ifdown/ifup and everything was sweet.
The switch to gnome is neat, but the terminal didn't work when I selected it.
Not bad, but now I have to find a sacrificial laptop on which to install it for real.
