Comments/Problems: Once the install was finished, I needed to install <firmware-realtek> and <firmware-linux-nonfree> to get wireless and Gnome 3 in 3D. These are specific to the hardware - the installer correctly identified the need for the wireless driver.

Install went very smoothly, as did the jigdo download, which I hadn't used before.

The brightness controls don't work on this hardware as this requires linux kernel 3.7 (I think). I have set sources to <testing> so will see how it works after Wheezy becomes stable, and updated kernels make it into Jessie (testing).

Happy with the install. Thanks
