Há quase um ano comprei um Dell Vostro 1400 e instalei o Arch nele. Tudo funcionou perfeitamente até hoje. Porém, como as aulas vão começar próxima semana e eu estou começando alguns projetos novos, resolvi formatar meu notebook, fazer uma limpeza geral e reinstalar o Arch.

Aproveitei a oportunidade para criar um guia de pós-instalação do Arch no Vostro 1400. Espero que ajude todos que também possuem este ótimo notebook. Vamos lá!
