Description:
|
There are several version of this laptop, with some small differences in hardware. My version is one of the more expensive ones, but still very affordable. Bought it for about 1250$.

512mb Ram
via82xx soundcard
Ati Radeon Mobile 9200 w/64mb Ram
40gb Harddrive
Realtek 8180 802.11b Wireless ethernet
Via Rhine II ethernet 10/100mbit
Combo CDRW/DVD player
4 USB 2.0 ports
No ps/2
Built in modem
Comes preinstalled with WinXP Home edition.
Batterytime:
~2hr when not used, ~20min when playing games in XP (prolly less).
Linux....
There's no problems running linux on this laptop. It needs support for cpu frequency scaling, found in latest kernel versions. Latest ati drivers works perfectly for the gfx card (don't forget the chipid in XF86Config). Using alsa for sound. Haven't tried the builtin modem.
Pros:
* Fast, very fast.
* Small, portable.
Cons:
* Batterytime, it doesn't last long.
* The cpu, although very very fast, it needs support for cpu frequency scaling, afaik, only found in kernel 2.6.x.
* Wireless lan, realtek has, as of yet, only released drivers for kernel 2.4.x.
