[SWLUG] recommendations for a netbook...

[Dick Bain]

>> Hi,

>> Any recommendations for a netbook?
>>
>> - I'd prefer one with Linux preinstalled, but I've installed Linux on my
>>  other machines (which came with Windows), so one that is
>>  Linux-friendly is sufficient.
>>
>> - I want it to be silent! No fans, ideally no or low keypress noise.
>>
>> - Decent battery life would be nice.
>>
>> I mostly want to use it as a notebook since my handwriting's awful &
>> paper notes are easy to lose.
>>
>> I did look at the Dell Mini 10v with 16GB SSD which looks good (with a 6
>> cell battery) at ~£300 incl.

I have just bought an Aspire one from Tesco for £269 it has 2Gb Ram
and 250Gb hard disk with vista :( but everything just works with
ubuntu 9.10 :D
cheers
Dick
