   Main thing is that they tend to use some cheapie (Celeron-esque) CPU and   
   supporting chipset.  Another tripping point is that they *MAY* not be   
   x86_64, which would kill the option of Mint on that specific model.   
      
   In this case, it's an intel N100, so you're good (barring weirdo sound   
   or wifi issues, as happens).
