Thinking of a new toy Empty
PostSubject: Thinking of a new toy   Thinking of a new toy EmptyThu Apr 15, 2010 9:26 am

I was thinking of getting a netbook, to be specific an Asus.

Then try out stuff like Linux (this time the primary OS) and maybe Chrome OS when it`s out.
Upgrade the ram to say 4GB, etc.

This will be my companion besides my smartphones.

What do you guys think? Or should I just sttick to Windows 7?
Cause the Atom isn`t really that good even with 7.

Try the Linux route using CROSSOVER 7 to install win apps on the linux enviroment. Cool I havent test how a virus will act in that enviroment, but I suspect it would work properly... Cool

Ah I see.... Will do if I get it...

Been quite sometime since I used Linux. Just love the no nonsense interface, with unlimited possibilities..

Though at the same time, I`m also considering an Ipad, but that`s strictly a toy and not meant for work...

But the main purpose I need a new toy is to keep me entertained.

lol the choice can be rather complicated

Forget all what I`ve mentioned. Aim now is the EEE Pad. This baby is around the size of teh Ipad, and the top of the line one runs on Intel C2D CULV.

I`m drooling lol
