    I didn't know whether this belonged in the Linux or MSI forum. Mods, feel free to move it if necessary.

    I am almost sold on the MSI GT627-218. I'll be buying in mid-August at the latest so if the GT628 happens to be out by then I'll get that.

    The last nagging thing I can't seem to find an answer for is this: Does Linux run well on it? I run Linux Mint which an offshoot of Ubuntu so if its supported in any Linux distro it'll be supported by Mint. Anyone tried this at all? Issues?

    Thanks in advance!
