Someone made an android (i think it was ICS) port for it. I'd probably try it with that.

@pwned
cool, you mean like as a touchscreen?

@zombie
it's super portable and saves you money if you're just getting a pc for linux so you dont have to spend like $300 bucks on the cheapest laptop at best buy

and besides
linux users are mostly graphic design people or programmers or casual web browsers who don't need a monster computer to play all the latest ram hogging games

it wouldnt be all that portable if you had to carry a monitor around

ah interesting

i could see how that would be really useful

like if you were at an airport or something you could just use a random computer and have everything you need on it without carrying around or worrying about a laptop
