@segphault: what were the selling points? |
@teamsterjr maybe if someone's really lucky they'll find a sixpence in it |
@keybuk so far most feedback on the M1330 has been good, except people who say "I hate Dell" generically. |
@drewm nah, we don't do that. nobody does back ups. |
@DanAdcock woah, the voodoo is expensive. Prettier than the Dell, but twice the price. That's a bit too much. |
@setmajer your criteria for a new machine are different from mine :) |
@matthewrevell it's not a totally unreasonable point, I admit it. :) |
@DanAdcock looking at the Envy133. Nice. Looks like Vista only, though; trying to find out about Ubuntu support |
@matthewrevell because art is a thing that I think ought to be preserved *even if the populace don't want it*, like museums. |
@matthewrevell yeah, but would it be commercially successful without? I saw The 39 Steps there; if it were London prices I wouldn't have |
@DanAdcock alternative recommendations solicited. What should I get instead in your opinion? |
@intranation made me chuckle, that :) |
OK, after a certain amount of research, am looking at the Dell M1330 from dell.co.uk/ubuntu. Anyone know any reason why I shouldn't? |
@matthewrevell that's the Lidl argument, though. It works but we beat everything down to the lowest common denominator (panto & cinema) |
@matthewrevell it's art for the punter though, no? |
Awake. Was faintly hoping that I'd just sleep until Christmas, but it was not to be. Still, I am here now. |
Have eaten. Forcing wakefulness for Top Gearin 15 minutes. Then I intend to sleep for a thousand years. |
Home. Thank god. |
Missed my train arguing with the barista who says that chai latte is coffee. Great. |
In Birmingham waiting for train for last leg of journey after travelling for 18 hours. So tired it is untrue. |
