I guess that could be argued, but it doesn't take that much more to

Compaq/HP seem pretty good - the widescreen HP Pavilion (15.4", 120GB
h/drive, Vista Home Premium, 2GB memory etc.) that Tesco sells at
about £370 seems to work well enough, including wi-fi.

Same here, I'm one year older :P. I've done a little programming in
python but that's it (on linux, I did Vbasic, Java, C# etc. on windows
before I moved).
I'm very much near york myself, but also have the inability to travel
large distances. Anyone know of anything going on near York?

Hi folks,
I'm on the lookout for a laptop for work which I can dual boot with
Vista & Ubuntu. I'm not fussed if it's an AMD or Intel based laptop but
I would like something with at least 1GB memory, an 80GB or higher hard
drive and a dual core CPU.

What is happening with this?

especially considering Canonical is based here. Regular real world
