The 560's been my primary GNU/Linux system since my other laptop\r\nfailed in November. It's not the fastest thing under the sun, but it\r\nworks.
\r\n\r\nFor installation, I'd strongly recommend a floppy drive, a PCMCIA\r\nmodem or network card, and either the \r\n[link|http://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst|network installation]\r\nor \r\n[link|http://twiki.iwethey.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/DebianChrootInstall|chroot\r\ninstall]. I did the latter, took a day or so to get a reasonably\r\nfull system installed, but I was online and ssh'ing out to remote sites\r\nwithin an hour.
