I just bought a new laptop .
The first thing I did was backed up windows vista then I put Ubuntu on it
It turns out I'm able to do pretty much everything I was able to do with windows .
The big thing I was looking for in a laptop was one that would work well with Ubuntu. I did much reading online to find I wanted to go with a nvidia graphics chip set because the linux support I've found to work alot better. So I bought the cheapest laptop I could find that would do what I needed. I paid just under 400 for a
amd doel core 2 gig prossessere
2 gig of ram
250 gig hard drive
15.6 wide screen
O and my fave the keyboard has a numberpad
The make is campac
So anyone out there looking for a laptop that works good with Ubuntu Look to New Egg.
I Have had no problems with driver. the video drivers work like a charm wirless is a peice of cake .
I've been playing windows games on it like:
Battlefield 1942
Unreal
Warcraft three
Old Genises Games
