I have made some mistakes int he last computer I bought, I spoke to
Acer yesterday, and found out that its highly probably, they wont be
updating the graphics card, and they have no intentions to support
Linux at all, just Windows...which is a little bit on the tunnel
vision side, but hey, its their choice......I told him I had bought an
Acer Aspire One with Linpus Linux Lite on it, and he said yep, that
didnt last very long, which is why we wont be doing Linux..........and
it working with Ubuntu 11.04 a fluke he says.....but its a tiny
netbook, hard on the hands and eyes
A couple of months ago, somebody started a thread, and it turned into
a few posts where urls were given to companies which sold either bare
bones pc's or pc with Linux of some form or other on them......this
problem of the back light doesnt look like as if its going to get
fixed for this laptop, so I need a laptop that is going to take
installing 11.04 and above......
I dont have a lot of money, so could somebody point me in the
direction of a good barebones computer that I can install 11.04 on
with few problems and can take any of the new updates in the
future........I dont want to make that mistake again, and waste all
that money.......that I dont have........I dont do games or huge lots
of graphics, so it is just a pc or pc or laptop that works with 11.04
in a fast enough way.....that doesnt take hours to load a page....
Thank You
John
