FWIW, I installed 1.0 a while back on a 755C (I think that's what it
was) and it went flawlessly and just ran... It even went down to
New Orleans for a trade-show and survived a pack of sales-creatures
pounding on it for a few days as part of a product demo...
I didn't have a docking port. Just the box and a slip-link at 115200.
YMMV.
