Hi. I will be getting a new computer soon (sans an OS) and thought about loading the latest build of 14.04 on it to use as my sole OS. I understand it may be a bit unstable, and I think I can deal...
I have the basic Galaxy Nexus myself, and am very curious and excited to see how Ubuntu will merge into the mobile realm.
I did have the Nexus 10 as well, but returned it. However, I'm seriously...
@cbtengr
Well, I think System76 is right in that they aren't the same computer, as a barebone system can be stuffed with whatever a vendor wants in order to create the tailored product they aim to...
I am considering the Sable Complete myself, and wondered about a couple of things...
It's probably obvious to most, but I have to ask, is the screen glossy or matte? And if it is, sadly, glossy,...
I ordered the X1 Carbon a couple of weeks ago, and am just awaiting delivery - there's been a delay of some kind due to hardware shortages/demand it seems.
I plan on loading Ubuntu 12.04 as soon...
Hi, jaylittle. Thanks for your comment.
I have the same processor as yours, the i7-3610QM. I didn't feel the need to upgrade the processor from the default selection given that this laptop had no...
Early morning update... (aka Dear Diary)
Well, I fully charged the battery last night, after fully discharging, powered it up, and the little battery indicator stated that I had right at 2:15hrs...
I placed my order for the new Gazelle Pro last Monday, and received it today. Quite surprised I was in having it shipped out so soon, but appreciative all the same. Thanks, System76!
I will say...
Yes, they take American Express cards. Or at least, I would think so, since my recent order went through!
However, I understand your concerns, as there was no indication as to whether they would...
@Thinkintuit
Looks good, thanks for the heads up! Though, if there's no graphical boost (i.e. dedicated card), why even bother with a seemingly heavier, fatter chasis than the one used for the...
If I'm not mistaken (as it's been a while since I've researched these SSDs), the Intel 320 is supposed to be more reliable as it features an Intel controller as opposed to a third party one. It also...
Indeed. My brother will have nothing but a glossy screen, and I do like how they seem to make colors pop. So, they certainly have their own set of pros (though not as many as matte screens have for...
I caught its stealthy return yesterday, as I literally check their website (and ZaReason's) daily for something to upgrade toward. However, as seems to always be the case, the latest release is...
While I have only corresponded with you a few times via email with respect to a potential product purchase, you were quick to respond and excellent to communicate with. So, best of luck to you,...
I can't fully compare and contrast the two, but I can say that a ZaReason desktop was actually my first computer purchase (using my own money) and my first time ever seeing, using, and loving Ubuntu...
I check their site obsessively (as I'm always in search of the perfect laptop/desktop), and was actually thrilled to see the Lemur no longer available. My instant reaction - Yes! A refresh coming in...
Is it okay if I hijack this thread to ask some questions of my own? (So as not to add another thread to the mix.)
Anyway, I'm thinking of getting a Lemur UltraThin once it ships with Natty, but...
Thanks for the tip. I was going to install it straight from Opera's site as a last resort, but Opera and Ubuntu both tell me it's highly recommended to install via Update Manager. I can't win! Haha. ...
Thanks for your response. Yes, I do have my printer connected via USB and can print text in color, but still can't print decent photos. I hear the printer rev up, then make faint, but high pitched...
My Update Manager popped up letting me know that a new version/upgrade of Opera is available. But when I click on "Install Updates," a warning pops up stating that the upgrade/update is "not...
Sorry... I didn't update my thread, as while my initial issue has been somewhat solved (in that the printer "works," but not fully), I didn't feel future posting would be of value to anyone. I think...
I bought the Brother DCP-395CN to replace my incompatible Canon printer, as I read that HP and Brother printers/all-in-ones were the most Linux friendly. I even checked before getting the DCP-395CN...
Thanks for the reply. It was weird how it happened, as all I did was click on Dolphin via "System Tools" and it changed my file manager. Strange. Anyway, after uninstalling Dolphin and that still not...
Hi. I feel like such a newbie mentioning what has transpired, but here goes...
I noticed something in my "System Tools" that I hadn't noticed before, and clicked on it to see what it was. That...
