Which Notebook to buy for travel

Liliplanet's picture

Hi,

Sorry if this is off topic, but I've noticed many Drupalers at our meetings with notebooks. I'm looking to buy a notebook to travel with, basically just to check email, add content to the site, etc.

1 or 2 USB ports would be great as well.

Do you perhaps have any suggestions? There seems to be such a large choice available.

Look forward to any reply, and thanx!

Acer 1 netbook = king for small mobile communications.

Google just released chrome for Linux as well, so that is a second awesome browser for Ubuntu if you went that route.

drupal on the aspire one

have you all tried running drupal on the aspire one? if so, how did you build the stack? acquia-installer, wampserver, xampp, individual apps installed seperately? and have you found it responsive enough to work against?
