I'm thinking of getting a new laptop. Currently the wife and I share an old Dell which is setup for dual-booting Winblows and openSUSE. We frequently end up bargaining on who gets to use it on a given day.
I would like a laptop that can run Linux well, has supported hardware, high quality video (CAD drawings), is light weight, and preferably under $US 1000. Brand is not high on the priority list but customer service is.
I have a 15.6 acer Hi Problem here with acer is that they bios disable virtualisation: no xen or kvm. Can't do 64 bit vm's of any type either. That's Spain. YMMV.
I hve vbox session of openSUSE Tw installed and runs fine???? Maybe the bios problem is from earlier editions? -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
