Hello,
I have an older Laptop with the following specs:
- AMD Athlon XP-M 2800+ (2.13 GHz)
- 512 MB RAM
- Savage S3 Savage4 Pro (32 MB) Card (apparently not supported by Ubuntu 9.10)
- 40 GB HDD
- LAN, WLAN, BlueTooth
- 15" screen with 1024*768 pixels
It has a very loud an annoying fan and does not have a battery any more. So it is basically not a laptop but a mobile desktop computer now. It can be disassembeled and put into a different case or something ...
I thought about building an internet terminal out of it, or a little tv.
Would it be possible to make it completely silent, with a CF Card instead of a hard drive and no fan but heatsinks? Could that be coverd with $50?
Thanks for any ideas!
