brousch | wtf | 13:49 |
snap-l | btw: meeting tonight | 17:45 |
gamerchick02 | anyone play with that new Dell XPS ultrabook yet? | 18:09 |
gamerchick02 | i took a gander at it at BB today. holy cow, it's a nice computer. | 18:09 |
rick_h_ | gamerchick02: if the x230's get released this month like they're supposed to, might have an x201 with 8gb of ram for sale :) | 22:05 |
rick_h_ | hmm, cnet says: 05/24/12 we'll see | 22:05 |
gamerchick02 | ooooh | 22:05 |
gamerchick02 | we will see | 22:05 |
gamerchick02 | i just keep looking at that Mac Air though | 22:06 |
brousch | rick_h_: is the keyboard still in tact? | 22:08 |
brousch | or has it been pummeled to dust? | 22:08 |
gamerchick02 | hah. i can see that. | 22:19 |
gamerchick02 | you have the "awesome version" yes? | 22:19 |
gamerchick02 | like 8gb ram and an SSD? | 22:19 |
brousch | I need that 8GB | 22:20 |
rick_h_ | brousch: hey, it's a thinkpad :) | 22:22 |
brousch | Yeah, but I've seen you type | 22:22 |
rick_h_ | yea, 8gb of ram, I bought and put in my own 160gb intel ssd but that's two years | 22:22 |
brousch | All the letters worn off? | 22:22 |
rick_h_ | i5 since better battery than the i7 with a 9cell and a 3 cell battery for it | 22:22 |
rick_h_ | no, none of the ltters are worn off | 22:22 |
brousch | nice system | 22:23 |
rick_h_ | yea, it's been my one true box for 2 years | 22:23 |
rick_h_ | but it's time to get that new chipset and a new SSD, and if it has a 1600 display <3 OMG OMG OMG | 22:24 |
brousch | I'm still on this 6 year old Dell D630, but 4GB and SSD now | 22:26 |
brousch | Too big to lug around at conferences | 22:26 |
rick_h_ | yea, will never go bigger than this 12.1/12.5 again I don't think | 22:27 |
rick_h_ | worked great these last two years | 22:27 |
brousch | I may just reformat the macbook pro. I got all the goodies working under Kubuntu live cd | 22:31 |
brousch | The touchpad is still a little annoying, but a bluetooth mouse would work | 22:32 |
gamerchick02 | rick_h_ that sounds amazing. | 22:35 |
rick_h_ | ooh, this is the first I've seen of WiDi. jcastro you seen anything about linux support in that realm? | 23:33 |
gamerchick02 | WiDi? what is that? (i'm out of the loop it seems) | 23:34 |
rick_h_ | wireless display | 23:34 |
rick_h_ | so firing a second monitor across wireless to a monitor/tv | 23:35 |
gamerchick02 | oooh. that sounds pretty awesome | 23:39 |
brousch | i've seen those for a couple of years | 23:44 |
brousch | via a dongle at each end | 23:45 |
rick_h_ | brousch: right, guess the new x230 has it built into its end | 23:48 |
rick_h_ | so you just need the dongle on the display end | 23:49 |
brousch | oh nice | 23:49 |
rick_h_ | hmmm, this review says June 5th... | 23:49 |
gamerchick02 | you guys and talking about dongles. *ducks and runs* | 23:50 |
gamerchick02 | sorry, i'm cheeky this evening. | 23:51 |
brousch | Suppresses inappropriate jokes about dongles and cheeks | 23:52 |
rick_h_ | oh boooo "I did confirm with Lenovo there will NOT be an HD+ screen. LaptopMag reported there would be, but that was a misquote and untrue." | 23:54 |
rick_h_ | no 1600 for me :/ | 23:54 |
gamerchick02 | awwww. | 23:55 |
gamerchick02 | brousch, that's ok. no need to suppress anything. | 23:55 |
gamerchick02 | but all this has made me grin and laugh. i need that tonight. :) | 23:56 |
rick_h_ | man, been afk for almost all weekend | 23:57 |
rick_h_ | and my email/rss are hating on me | 23:57 |
rick_h_ | greg-g: what did you end up doing SSD-wise? Did you hear back from jcastro? Putting a 240gb intel in my wishlist I htink for the moment | 23:57 |
rick_h_ | oooh, this looks sweet: http://arstechnica.com/apple/2012/06/geek-upgrade-diy-install-of-newertech-power2u-usb-outlet/ | 23:59 |
