(a 12" notebook is not much bigger than a 8.9" netbook with 2 inches of useless plastic bezel) x200 makes zero noise, is only slightly warm to the touch in one corner, chip temp 70C when the 1.86g compiling gentoo stuff continuously with -j4 plus the chipset on the netbooks, HDs, screens, all make up the largest fraction of energy usage so the low chip TDP is a gimmick when you consider its fractional performance of ~10 more watt peak TDP you wanna buyy my aspire one? > > Rob > _______________________________________________ > Linux-audio-user mailing list > Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
