I'm seriously considering the purchase of an HP Pavilion Slimline s7600y PC to replace my aging home built system. I'm planning to wipe the drive and install FC6, but I wanted to ask if anyone else has one of these and found that Linux didn't work so well on it.

From what I can tell from the spec sheet, it should work fine since I don't believe there are a lot of components in it that aren't supported by FC6. It's got a card reader on the front and seems very much like a laptop without being a laptop, so I'm hopeful that it would "just work".
Does anyone else have one of these systems? If so, did it give you any problems when installing Linux?
