Anybody using a Lenovo Ideapad Y570 or similar machine with NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M 1GB?

It should work great but who knows? I have read reports of the Optimus switching technology not working. Also, I had a bad experience with a T520 that had crappy sound when the NVidia drivers are enabled.

If you are using this machine, is it working ok?

 

thanks

As far as I'm aware, it should work fine with the proprietary nvidia drivers on Linux, right out of the box.  Your mileage may vary on windows.
