Now that would defeat the purpose of running Linux and being in a user group. IOW, get a suitable laptop, and then install Linux onto it. I would suggest base install of Debian Wheezy, and then installing the software you'll *actually* want - save *heaps* of diskspace and also avoid certain other issues associated with Ubuntu, e.g. https://fixubuntu.com/ -- "If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." --- Malcolm X _______________________________________________ DunLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ethernal.org/listinfo/dunlug DunLUG Wiki - http://dunlug.kallisti.net.nz/
