    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...

    [ubuntu] Re: Sable Complete desktop

    @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 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...

    [other] Re: Does System76 accept American Express?

    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...

    [ubuntu] Re: The Lemur is back!

    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...

    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.)
