[ubuntu-uk] buying a laptop?

[Dave Hanson]

I got a very good laptop from pcspecialist.co.uk, i7 processor 8GB RAM, 
It came with Windows 7 pre-loaded but everything 'just works' when i 
installed Lucid onto it.

I'm only writing this as when i was trying to find one that had high 
specs, there isn't a great deal of documentation out there guaranteeing 
that you won't have any issues with an Ubuntu installation.

It was this model - http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/notebooks/optimus/

The good thing is you can specify exactly what you want, much like Dell, 
so the cost is up to you.
