I am very pleased with mine. Speedwise, it beats my Toshiba and my Compaq,
both of which have more MHz (but less cache). I will be posting some details
on this soon to my experix project page (experix.sourceforge.net). I'll also
describe the setup things I needed to do. The keyboard takes
Gluglug has updated and SSD is now 60GB, no extra (dock, mouse...) and a
4cell battery instead of 8cell. This to make it cheaper.
I'm guessing when people ask perfermonace they mean some of the following
things:
Can it play back HD/full HD movies smoothly?
Can it play free software games smoothly (which ones)?
How fast is it for other tasks and is it suitable at all (e.g. how fast does
it encode VP8/VP9 video, can it
I use mine for everything. Most of my use of a computer is text editing,
email, web browsing and the like, but I also watch videos and compile source
code, etc.
I never have any performance issues.
Mine is an X60s with the Core Duo L2400 processor, running Trisquel 6 with
Gnome 3 desktop.
What's the storage, RAM and CPU of yours?
The best is Core Duo T2400 (X60), L2300 or L2400 (X60s) with 3GB RAM and 120
GB SSD - probably this increase the performance.
For me, I can't sense a delay in reaction. So it's fast enough for anything I
do. But I don't do gaming apart from a few simple 2D, and video processing is
reserved for something more powerful.
I am looking at the laptops that have Trisquel installed recently. Seems like
the gluglug x60 is a good choice for me to discover the Linux and free
software. But still I'm not sure about the performance of the laptop. Its
configuration is a bit out of date, so I am bit worry about this
I've had one for almost two years. The performance is great and I have
absolutely no regrets. Plus, as a ThinkPad, the durability can't be beat.
What are you looking forward on doing on your Trisquel laptop?
