Hi all, <br>Me and my wife are in the end of our bicycle trip in west europe. (<a href="http://www.underadometent.com">www.underadometent.com</a>)<br>We are now in Spain and would like to buy here a laptop for my wife. I´ll put on it Debian SID. She will use Gnome, Fluxbox or KDE. <br>
It is mainly for internet, wifi, office, movies... Regular.<br>We will buy it here because we will get 10% back as tax return. I think it is a very good price. <br>The prices here are around 500-600 euros for: 4gb, 320-500gb hd, 15.6 hd led screen, G or Draft-N wifi. <br>
The only thing that had differance where the graphic cards. <br>Some are shared memory and some are dedicated. <br>One laptop that I put my eye on is a Packard Bell tj65 with Nvidia G-Force 240m with 1GB dedicated (600 euros).<br>
Now my questions are:<br>1. Will we notice a differance between shered and non shered graphic card?<br>2. What are the catches I should look for? I would like the computer to go to sleep and Hibernate. <br>3. CPU T4xxx T5xxx . Will it make a differance what is picked? The T5xxx is with 2gb cache.<br>
<br>I will load Knoppix cd that I carried with me all the way (it was 2500m up in the alps) ;-) To do some checking. So if you can advice what to check it will be great. <br>We are still on the trip, and internet is scarce. So I will not be able to unswer promptly. Just in one or two days. <br>
<br>Regards, <br>Kfir<br>
