Hi,
For a number of years, I have hated laptops. They cost too much for
what they delivered.
However, laptops have steadily improved, and now include additional
monitor support.
The unspoken description of laptops is that they are a PC with an
inbuilt 1 hour UPS.
For the small office/home office application, I am beginning to think
that laptops make sense.
Plug in a better monitor and keyboard. Get a flash disk for main storage.
Spinning disk for big rarely accessed things.
Cheers,
Derek.

List dwellers,
The less than satisfactory Dynamix 1000VA UPS that I had a Desktop box
and LCD monitor connected to, has coughed its last and been scrapped.
It worked to a fashion but I guess I got what I paid for.
Now, what I'm after are "real world recommendations" of what is a
linux friendly device to procure as a replacement. That is, it must
play nicely with the NUT suite.
I've applied my 'Google' skills and see a range in the marketplace,
I'm already swayed toward APC but have seen EATON mentioned a few times.
What are people on this list using in SOHO applications, or are we now
all laptops, tablets and smart-phones.
regards,
Andrew Sands
