Re: [ubuntu-uk] RM £169 linux-ok notebook
I am sure it will be sales to schools only so possible people will miss out on this device.

And there are some other sellers, too. And you can run Ubuntu on it (it comes with Asus' version of Xandros). But how functional is 4Gb flash drive? (I suppose with 3 USB 2.0 ports, you could always cart round a 100Gb Seagate portable drive to run seriously big apps! ;-) ) Mac -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/

IIRC they announced there would be a couple of different revisions with different storage sizes (and I'm sure one of the higher spec models had a model built in too). For a portable machine running Linux you can't go wrong :-) I can't help but wonder though that Microsoft might try and persuade RM to bundle the machines with something like Windows XP Embedded (due to the data storage constraints - I certainly doubt a standard install of Vista would fit). I'll stick one on my christmas list and hope for the best. Rob -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
