I'd want to see Knoppix or an Ubuntu live CD running on it to see how
it fares with the hardware. I'd specifically want to know the chipsets
and linux support level for the graphics, wireless, card reader,
modem, and ethernet.

Not cons, just unknowns. A quick look around shows some support for
the video chipset, but not knowing the wireless chipset, that's a
crapshoot. And linux support for integrated laptop card readers is
next to nil (last I looked).
