[Nelug] Linux Laptop from Tiny.com

[Ian MacKenzie]

Hi Richard

Don't know if you spotted it, but Tiny.com are advertising a Mediabook LX E2400 laptop with an [unspecified] Linux OS for 399. It's in the November's PC Answers, issue 138, on page 51. Unfortunately I can't find it on their website, and the Ecode listed doesn't produce a result, so I have emailed them about it.
There aren't too many suppliers out there offering ready-to-go Linux machines, so it might be worth while circulating the LUG memberships -  even if Tiny are just flying a kite, a response to show that people are interested might confirm for them that there is a willing market for Linux.

Enjoyed the Linux day at Newcastle, found it very helpful.
