Red Hat Talks About Nouveau, Open-Source Drivers

No touchscreen, no dual core, old tech

&&

stupid glossy display. Next!

(I'm actually looking for a new netbook right now, but didn't find any with a workable resolution and no glossy display)

Want to run the latest and greatest Intel blob, then? It has a pretty decent res (13xx*xxxx or something). You can made a DIY anti-reflector.

Or... You could wait for that 11inch, glossy anti reflective and anti smuch 13xx*xxx touchscreen, 2GB RAM, dual-core Neo, 120GB SSD, 1KG, 3G modem, 10 hour battery Asus EEE...

But that isn't going to happen anytime soon

Hello bitches!!!

So you wanted an AMD Neo plus ATI/AMD 3200 netbook without the Windows OS? Here you go: http://techreport.com/articles.x/18883

Problem solved, thread closed...

It always bugs me that I am forced to either buy a windows license or don't buy a laptop at all. At least where I live there is no other option. I hope more of these OS free PCs start to become more common.

About that particular computer it's just too bad it uses 200 year old technology with poor battery life. My main concern when buying portable stuff is that it IS actually portable.
