anhu | hello | 05:26 |
adrian__ | i was a looking for a piece of advice on buying a laptop | 05:27 |
adrian__ | would you help me? | 05:27 |
anhu | yes | 05:27 |
anhu | whatkind advice u will need? | 05:28 |
adrian__ | thanks, i was looking for 13 inches laptop | 05:28 |
adrian__ | and all want is well bult and long battery life | 05:29 |
adrian__ | i mean, is there any brand which is making non-plastic laptops? | 05:29 |
anhu | macbook come nearest non-plastic at reasonable price | 05:30 |
anhu | but first should ask how much u want to spend new laptop? | 05:30 |
adrian__ | the macbook price is ok | 05:31 |
adrian__ | but, i've heard there are issues on battery life when running ubuntu | 05:32 |
adrian__ | (sorry for my bad english) | 05:32 |
anhu | np | 05:32 |
anhu | i haven't heard any thing nor have any experience from macbook with ubuntu | 05:33 |
adrian__ | and i would like to avoid buying an apple thing | 05:33 |
anhu | :D | 05:33 |
anhu | other brand laptop will cost more, typicaly they are enclosed by plastic and verydurable magnesium skeleton | 05:34 |
adrian__ | my other option is sony vaio sr series | 05:35 |
adrian__ | and is what you've just said | 05:35 |
anhu | of course full-metal is much attractive when compare to plastic-models | 05:36 |
adrian__ | but i'm not pretty sure, i mean, yesterday i was at a shop and they claimed that the only non-plastic laptops they had were apple ones | 05:36 |
adrian__ | and they have sony vaio | 05:37 |
adrian__ | yes, and the one piece thing | 05:37 |
adrian__ | sounds really great | 05:37 |
anhu | how much sony cost? | 05:38 |
anhu | of cource u can buy toughbook ;) | 05:38 |
adrian__ | hehehe, sony vaio sr is around 1000$ | 05:39 |
anhu | not bad | 05:40 |
anhu | i try to search spec from sony | 05:41 |
adrian__ | yes, but i'm not sure if the skeleton is made of magenesium since they seem more interested in selling vista and flashing lights | 05:41 |
adrian__ | http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?catalogId=10551&storeId=10151&langId=-1&categoryId=8198552921644570898&parentCategoryId=16154 | 05:42 |
adrian__ | and the keyboard seems pretty nice | 05:44 |
anhu | yea | 05:44 |
adrian__ | the worst thing is at computers shops i visited they don't know anything about laptop | 05:45 |
anhu | haha, it's very typical | 05:45 |
adrian__ | they only say: you see, it's plastic, no magneisum | 05:45 |
adrian__ | magnesium | 05:46 |
adrian__ | anyway, macbook keeps being the best option | 05:46 |
anhu | but even sony say not mensioin anything about casing | 05:46 |
anhu | but why u don't want apple machine? :) | 05:47 |
adrian__ | well, buying apple is supporting apple | 05:47 |
anhu | dooh i founded :D | 05:48 |
adrian__ | and they design good things, but I think that when moral comes they're worse than microsoft | 05:48 |
adrian__ | i mean that it's not apple it's no good | 05:48 |
anhu | sony-page The 1" thin11 SR features a magnesium alloy chassis and barely tips the scales at 4.0 pounds6. | 05:48 |
adrian__ | yes, but they say chasis and not all the chasis is made of magnesium | 05:49 |
anhu | is typicaly skeleton-frame witch stand somepoint of torture | 05:49 |
adrian__ | i'm seeing that i will buy a macbook | 05:51 |
adrian__ | or maybe i'll wait till brands think about a laptop is something which should be resistent | 05:52 |
anhu | maybe | 05:53 |
adrian__ | hehe, well, anyway i wait until my plastic machine dies | 05:54 |
adrian__ | thank you so much | 05:54 |
anhu | i should ask why non-plastic? :) | 05:54 |
anhu | ok, maybe i know why :D | 05:54 |
adrian__ | hehe, yes, but the answer would be: because I want to use it as laptop | 05:57 |
adrian__ | as a portable laptop | 05:57 |
anhu | ok, i have nothing bad to say anything by laptop which has plastic case and magnesium skeleton. plastic just feel ankward, like a toy | 05:59 |
adrian__ | i think i'm going to bed and i hope i dream about FSF buying apple | 06:00 |
adrian__ | yes, that's the point | 06:00 |
adrian__ | and it loses pieces | 06:00 |
adrian__ | it's really easy to tear apart | 06:00 |
adrian__ | well, i have to wake up my girlfriend | 06:01 |
adrian__ | nice day | 06:01 |
anhu | yeah, goodnight | 06:01 |
