hi list,
finally i got to the point to convince my girlfriend to switch from win
to linux, so i am looking now in the internet for a good-price-laptop
for her.
since i am on ibm here and very happy with this, we are looking now for
'lenovo 3000 n100' here:
http://www.notebooksbilliger.de/product_info.php/lenovo_3000_n100_megaaktion_1024mb
(sorry the link is in german).
so the question i have is first about the processor:
Intel Core™ Duo für Mobile
<javascript:popupWindow('http://indigo.intel.com/Syndication/DistributeModule.aspx?a=165&m=133&l=6&ppc_cid=GF1_0165013306','infocontent','top=200,left=100,resizable=1,scrollbars=0,width=960,height=655');>
T2450 2x 2,0 GHz
does anyone can recommend this processor or is there someone who could
say "don't get that!"
i have a celeronM here and that works pretty good for me, but i do not
have any experience in setting up linux for dual-technologies.
another question is about the hd:
there is not specified which hd is build in, but it only makes 5400rpm.
should we expect any problems on a hd with that speed?
so in generally i would go for some hardware, where we can get ubuntu or
sth similar installed, without too much problems. in the end the machine
should be used for multimedia and some networking.
i am really looking forward for some answers on this!
I have a higher end version of the same notebook at work. It hasn't
been very nice to use with linux. I can't get the firewire or wireless
to work. I can't get the power modes to work nicely. Also, the
construction isn't as nice as the Thinkpads, there are only two mouse
buttons instead of three, and the display isn't as nice. The previous
work notebook was a Thinkpad R series, and it just worked perfectly. It
actually got more battery life from Linux than it did on Windows. The
reason I don't still have the Thinkpad R series is that it was stolen
>from airport luggage.
joshua, this is exactly a feedback i wanted to have, since you are
directly experienced with almost the same machine!
very much thanks for the comments - i think i will have a look at sth
like thinkpad-r60..
cheers,
doc
