For some future period I will get new node to run on openbsd.
First dilema is to have laptop or desktop. Both have something
to learn about supported hardware. I'd like to know what are
popular el cheapo parts. Current, since at my place anything
older than 1-2 years cannot be found.
1. For desktop, some integrated solution. Like amd a4-3300.
Or to run for intel? No need for 3d or movies or games. I cannot
understand the state of this newer chips. In short: what inte-
grated cpu? What is good and proven mobo for that cpu?
2. The only option not to break the bank, 14" laptop is asus x401a.
Intel Celeron Dual Core B830 1.8GH, Intel HD Graphics 2000
(Intel GT2), probably some atheros bgn wifi.HM70 Express Chip
set. Or: AMD Ontario Dual-Core C60 1.33GH, AMD Radeon
Mobility HD6290 (C60) AP, whoknowswhatwifi, as amd version.
I've read supported hardware lists. Something is not available,
something is on expensive side. I already have nodes for mundane
tasks and would like to have dedicated box for openbsd, 64 bit.
If I go for desktop, I want the least expensive option and wor-
king on openbsd 5.2. The same for 14 inch laptop, probably with
matte screen, which is hard to find under $500.
The more I read, less I know what to buy.
Best regards
Zoran
