    Thinking about picking one of these up tomorrow. Any issues connecting to network drives with the Linux OS?

    Hmm, did work on my "One"

    mount.cifs \\\\192.168.1.2\\files windowsfiles -o user=my_username_on_windowsserver,password=my_password_on_windowsserver,uid=user,gid=user

    If you use "My Files" an create a new folder, in this example "windowsfiles", when you hav done that, chose "File" on the menubar an "Open terminal here" and put in the mount.cifs codeline

    you have to be superuser to do that, so at first you enter: su
    and your password when you asked for that
    The IP-address i just an Example.
