[Ilugc] Request for suggestion : laptop VS netbook
Friends. I am looking for buying a laptop or netbook. Budget : around 20 k Looked the netbooks in a laptop shop. They are so small with 10 screen. But, sony viao has 11.6 screen which has most wider screen in the tiny devices. Will the sony viao 11.6 support linux well? The usage will be browsing, openoffice, python/php coding. Please share your thoughts on performance/processor/RAM requirements of netbooks. -- Regards, T.Shrinivasan My Life with GNU/Linux : http://goinggnu.wordpress.com Free/Open Source Jobs : http://fossjobs.in Get CollabNet Subversion Edge : http://www.collab.net/svnedge ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Check with dell (Netbook), which will come around to your budget. But don't work for more hours in netbook which will create an eye problem since it has a small screen. Thanks, V.

Just to clarify, I will prefer to work with independent individuals on this, since a. the project is ultimately going to be open source b. I am looking for fast turnaround times (email replies in hours not days and phone availability at all reasonable hours) c. This is NOT a high value corporate contract, it is a small research activity by a very prestigious international organization, so its more portfolio value than cash value Please respond with timelines and a quote to deliver the following. Rough guestimates will do, and please err on the *opposite* side of caution if err you must. * Goal: To develop an Android app that can transfer incoming calls on the SIM line to a SIP server. * Suggested approach: A SIP client that can : 1. Forward incoming calls on a GSM/CDMA (GSM only will do, but CDMA only will not) line to a SIP number at a proxy on the same LAN Could use the SIP stack baked into Gingerbread. However it would be even nicer to be able to do this on an older Android version, so that we can deploy on cheaper phones. 2. Can use the USB tether line as a transport layer. I am sure this is baked into the SIP stack on Gingerbread, but it would be important since Wireless messes with call quality. Same applies for older versions 3. Can take a call from a SIP line and forward it outwards over a SIM line. This need not be working in the prototype, but the approach should not negate this 4. MUST be able to transfer DTMF tones from the incoming SIM line and transfer accurately to the SIP extension. This is a go-nogo call...everything else working and this not working means no go :) The prototype will be deployed by techies who understand the meaning of the word BETA so the focus is on functionality not visual appeal or user experience. Config files and scripts are fine as long as clear instructions are provided on how to operate. That's pretty much it, have no restrictions on what you can use as a basis as long as its free for redistribution along with source code...which I suppose means you're limited to GPL.

Re: [Ilugc] Request for suggestion : laptop VS netbook
2011/12/28 Shrinivasan T tshriniva...@gmail.com: I am looking for buying a laptop or netbook. It depends on what you intend to run on it. If you are going to do a lot of browsing and minimal office work, or if you want good portability, then get a netbook. If you are going to be running resource intensive apps, if you are going to be watching movies, playing games, if you need storage space, if you don't mind carrying something around 3kgs or so in your back pack, go for a laptop. My recommendations: Dell, Acer, Toshiba, Lenovo. DO NOT buy: HP, Compaq, Samsung, HCL. (my experiences) Sony is unnecessarily expensive. So I wouldn't buy it. If you have reading problems or if your eye isn't healthy, go for a laptop. Also ask for something that comes with free DOS or Linux by default. Laptops heat up. Netbooks don't heat up as much. If there are unusually high numbers of heat vents, you don't want to by that (my observation). If you are buying dell, buy extended warranty (trust me). Buy VT enabled stuff that runs hardware assisted hypervisors better. Make sure you don't buy a glorified tablet if you're buying a Netbook. -- Y ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc

Re: [Ilugc] Request for suggestion : laptop VS netbook
Portability : Netbooks can be under 1.5Kg and gives better battery back up. Atom processor and 10 inch screen comes to rescue here. Development work : I have done decent amount of development work on a netbook. Its your code, you know the source base well and most of the time you will be just typing stuff. But to do heavy testing, debugging or hacking an alien source base, you can connect a big monitor to your netbook. Browsing : If you use less of tabbed-browsing and can remember your tab windows, you can switch to full screen mode (F11) and get the best out of your 10 inch screen. And try to remove the battery, as much as possible, when your laptop/netbook is plugged in. Gives good battery life. If this is the only x86 you are gonna have and you are gonna use it for serious programming, better buy a desktop or spend a little more for a 14/15 inch laptop.
