Do you like the Mini 9? Did you get the one with XP or Ubuntu? Is it fast?

Yes; Ubuntu; Quite.
Boots in mere seconds, gets better OpenGL performance than my laptop (same Intel graphics chipset), battery lasts four hours with WiFi on. It's also extremely light. I bought mine with everything: 1GB of RAM, 1.3mp webcam, 32GB SSD. Keyboard takes a bit of time to get used to.

@xbox: Nope, I just tried to get it on the desk, it wouldn't fit (it's on top of the server, barely visible under the carrying bag for my laptop mouse).

Other than that text, that's a pretty cool background.

In retrospect, I could edit out, but I kind of like it.

Do they think that we can't hotlink the image, just because you can't Right-Click, Copy Image Location?

Ok, I finally got the time to take an updated picture of my setup.

Here's what it looks like -

Got the tablet for Christmas and cleaned up the desk for the first time in over a year to fit it on there.

Any problems yet?
I'll get it when Microsoft releases the beta since, by then, I should have my new laptop and can have XP, Vista, and Windows 7.

DrXThirst · Post by **DrXThirst** » Mon Dec 29, 2008 10:16 am

Ubuntu, XP, Vista, and 7!

No, but seriously, I just bought a whole bunch of new shit for my setup downstairs. I also cleaned up, so I'm going to take a new picture and upload it whenever I get done eating.

Not enough HDD space for 4, I would need an external drive.
But then if I wanted to use Ubuntu, would I be able to access the stuff I my HDD if I had to boot from an external drive?

DrXThirst · Post by **DrXThirst** » Mon Dec 29, 2008 10:29 am

Not sure. I think so. What's the size of your internal HDD?

xbox · Post by **xbox** » Mon Dec 29, 2008 10:31 am

250 gb
