I've tried Linux on the desktop in the past and it used to leave me wanting for a lot. It never just worked. How is it these days? Do you still have to constantly tinker with everything to have a UX remotely as nice as OS X or Windows?

    Sleep/wake is completely rock solid. Battery life is only okay - about 5 hours - on my model (latest 7-series with smallest battery), but from what I understand, it isn't that great on Windows, either.
