Which notebook?

[Ashley Benton]

Thank you all for your answers. I did read it same if I didn't answer each
time. She had bought her laptop and decided to install Ubuntu on her old
desktop first.
I think she will probably decide to install Ubuntu on the laptop when she
will know it better.
Thanks
Meg
