Hi, I need your advice/ opinions/ rants/ whatever.
I would like buy a notebook. I think even a netbook will do. Please let me know the most economical gadget given my needs which are Whats important: a. X should preferably not need closed-source hacks b. I'd prefer networking that just works with the standard kernel c. as long a battery life as possible - 3 hours at least, more if possible d. should not heat up e. lightweight f. cheap, cheap, cheap :D Whats NOT important: 1. Gobs of RAM: For that I'll use a separate server 2. Raw CPU horsepower/virtualization: For that I'll use a separate server 3. Large disk space: For that I'll use a separate server and NFS 4. Multimedia: For that I'll use a separate desktop Usually I work in Fedora/RHEL and am happy in terminal mode - mutt, irssi, elinks,vi. I use X largely for OpenOffice, Pidgin and Mozilla. The best thing about X is that I can open up so many xterms :) So, guys, what do you think will be good for me ?
