Tuxpaint on the new laptop
Robert is happy with my new laptop: I loaded Tuxpaint on it. It’s a Dell Inspiron 15n — I’d like to link to it but I can’t find it on Dell’s site anymore. There was an article I saw mentioning a $250 Dell laptop running Linux. I spent a little more to get an upgrade to the CPU and a bigger battery, but it still seemed crazy cheap to me for 2GB, Pentium Core Duo, and 160GB of disk space. I’m happy with it and more importantly, so is Robert.

It’s pretty buried but if you start by searching Dell’s site for Ubuntu you can eventually get to the right page, but the price has gone up $50 in the last couple weeks.
