I manage to get my 11z last week. First thing I did was to install Windows 7 Ultimate on it. Speed wise is ok. I didnt expect much from this machine. I had installed Virtual PC on it. Manage to get my Win2k3 vhd running but performance is too slow. I have not tried Photoshop but performance for other apps are acceptable.

Pros
- Bright & clear screen
- Almost normal size keyboard.
- Most apps runs well
- Touch pad gestures saves time once you have master it.
- Long battery life (6 hrs)
- 3 USB port + 1 HDMI + 1 LAN

Cons
- Not nearly as light as I wanted it.
- Touchpad sometimes misunderstand (e.g. I accidently zoom in quite often)
- Six cell battery sticks out. sad.gif (If you carry yr notebook in a bagpack its ok, however, if you are a notebk sleeve person, this will not do)
- Fingerprint magnet..

The battery that sticks out actually make typing easier. Also, I wish they had offer to package 2 x 3 cell battery.
