I paid around 700 for the System 76 laptop - everything plug and play, upgraded the memory (the guys at system 76 provided me with the specs so I bought the correct chips). I love the machine - not dual core AMD, but dual core Intel - sometimes we all much make compromises . . .Luobotouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04790699792905089712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876560611515310173.post-2111477686520204462007-06-17T11:12:00.000-05:002007-06-17T11:12:00.000-05:00The system76 systems seem waaaay overpriced to me man. Especially considering the largest hard drive they come with is only 100gb.<BR/><BR/>The Darter model has a max memory of 1.5 gb for no particular reason.<BR/><BR/>I'll probably go for a Macbook or a Dell with ubuntu preinstalled.rollerskatejammshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04232372666626429981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876560611515310173.post-23406235022539149232007-06-17T00:24:00.000-05:002007-06-17T00:24:00.000-05:00Glad to see you're back in business!!<BR/>I am not sure how many ppl have had problems with Beryl and Open Office, but mine was acting very strange ( all field headers had 0's displayed.<BR/>Well I fixed it reinstalling Open Office using the RPM download suing this link:<BR/>http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1945243&postcount=29<BR/>Just in case others have problems...lsutigerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07481858487236856366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876560611515310173.post-30727742141652573072007-06-15T12:02:00.000-05:002007-06-15T12:02:00.000-05:00Hey Red,<BR/><BR/> Before you go and send it off again try http://www.wikihow.com/Pop-a-Key-Back-Onto-a-Dell-Laptop-Keyboard.
