    I know it has been out for awhile, I tried to search... but the advanced search feature is broken for me(loads a blank page)

    So, has anyone gotten a linux to work flawlessly on a new Alienware 17 yet?

    TIA.

    Use IE 10, the search is working on the forum :)

    I don't use linux, but sometimes, i'm running parted magic iso and it runs without problems.
