Nice! My laptop is pretty much on its way out, and going into my
second year of Uni I think I will need a laptop to do Uni work on
between campus and home.  Whats the hardware support like with Linux?
Wifi Card all working under Ndiswrapper? Is the Graphics card
Beryl-ready ?

Do I look like technical support? :-P

I believe Acer's are well supported but then again that's half the fun of Linux, TBO I rarely check 'Hardware Support'  I just install and work from there, so long as you can get internet access one way or another the rest is plain sailing.

Arch Linux is an independent i686-optimized community distribution for intermediate and advanced Linux users. Utilising a Rolling Release System packages are regularly updated and an ISO release is just a snapshot to the stable packages at that time. So there's no need for a fresh install the command 'pacman –Syu' upgrades the whole system.
