I was wondering if anything special is needed wrt installation and how to get the stylus, etc going. According to the shell of the laptop, it appears to have a Wacom device. Is there any place I can read up on this? I am interested in being able to use the tablet features and the stylus.

Boot the LiveCD on it and see how/if it works?  There are different LiveCD's for different desktops.
