Slashdot recently had an interesting discussion about this laptop. I learned that all Sony laptops support only the operating system they are sold with. BIOS may prevent installation of a different OS and Sony doesn't provide any drivers. If this is true, I will never buy a Picturebook.

(Built in DVD-R!!) http://www.jp.sonystyle.com/Style-a/Catalog/02su/Grx91gp/index.html Okay, so if you've got $4000+ sitting around and can wait until after their October release, this baby, while nowhere near a subnotebook in size or form factor, will be an awesome laptop for anyone that wants to replace their TV, DVD, VHS, Monitor and Desktop PC with one laptop. Built-in DVD-R recorder! TV tuner! 5.1 Sound with Remote control!! 2Ghz, 512MB, 60GB, 16.1 screen!!! aaa!! drrl!!! o!!! drĂ´le ? do you mean funny ? I have now a GRX316, as workstation, only 256MB, 20GB, but DVD with Cygwin Xfree, and always the Libretto on the side, as file server, HTTP server, GeneWeb server It is quite different from the Libretto, but, as I become old, a large screen is very nice. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.

[LIB] CT100 Serial access while travelling
Date: Sun, 14 Jul 2002 19:09:42 -0500 From: Mark H. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: CT100 Serial access while travelling Is there a compact way to make serial connection to a CT110 when traveling (like Palm sync and GPS data uploads)? I don't want to take my dock along just to make the connection. I had a CT50 and there was a small port bar that came with it. Is there a similar option for the CT100, or possibly a PC Card option?

So, what is your opinion about Fujitsu P-series? P-1000- About the same size as L110, 8.9 touch screen. P-2000- Somewhat larger, 10.6 screen, DVD Both have modem and Ethernet and promise an excellent battery life. ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ - Archives ---TO UNSUBSCRIBE--- Reply to any of the list messages.
