    Which of the three Laptop would be best?

    I use it for all purpose - video & photo editing, web surfing, compiling, mythtv front end, etc. I also multitask like crazy. It's important to note also that the version I have has an nvidia card in addition to the integrated graphics, so that helps improve performance in some areas. The...

    Basic laptop with decent res screen?

    Second getting an old Thinkpad. I still use an old R40 with 1440x1050. It's only 1.5Ghz so I need to upgrade, but I can't bring myself to do it because its still runs flawlessly and going to 1368x768 is such a massive step down. I don't know why people put up with that crap. I've been looking...

    Changing Permissions/Taking Ownership of Read-Only Drive/Folder in Ubuntu.
