I run that on my desktop/server box and I'm planning to put it on my
laptop. They do a great job of smoothing some of the rough edges of Sid.
Just note that Sid no longer includes the NV (open source NVidia)
driver. It includes the newer Nouveau (open source NVidia) driver.
Unfortunately, Nouveau doesn't support the older NVidia hardware ...

Their newest update now includes an RT kernel 3.0 as an option.
