New laptop
Posted by Sayamindu 4 years, 2 months ago
Finally I went out and booked a new laptop. It is a Pentium M 715 based system, with 256 megs of RAM, an ipw2200 wireless network adapter, a VIA Rhine II ethernet card and the other usual stuff (including a DVD/CD-RW combo). I went to the showroom for a demo, and both Knoppix 3.3 and the JDS Live CD ran properly on it, so I am more or less sure that the base hardware will be Linux compatible. I ran a few apps (Staroffice, OpenOffice.org, Bochs, The GIMP, XMMS, Chromium, Frozen Bubble, etc), and performance was quite acceptable. I got the whole thing in the sub 60K range, so I am quite happy. The actual thing will arrive next week.
How wonderful !! Hope to catch up with you soon with the new toy.
Sayamindu, I have tried to get in touch with you a lot. But unfortunately I dont have your email address. Please check out my website at http://www.sdey.org. I want some idea about setting up Bengali font on the site. But as I use free host, I think I cannot embedded files. Get back to me thru sdey@india.com
I think you remember me.
