Telecommunications, especially wireless technologies, is no longer a hot topic in both academia and industry. Seriously, if not Qualcomm, who else will really push the development of wireless technologies, Huawei? Apple has very limited, if not nothing, contribution to the fundamental evolution in this area. Apple would just kill the industry.
I have just installed it on an old PC (2.8G CPU and 512M mem) yesterday. The installation procedure is easy and smooth. And the hardwares are well supported except the network card, a marvell yukon 88E8001 card. Fortunately, the device driver utility provided by the livecd succesfully detected it and pointed out where the 3rd part driver can be obtained. The driver's installation script, however, has some problems. As a result, I still have to manually run update_drv with correct paramter after installation to attach the driver. Anyway, the system successfully runs finally. With Gnome interface, the operations are easy and familiar.
