Sounds good except for the graphics chipset. They should have went with an AMD CPU with a 780G chipset. It wouldn’t be as fast CPU-wise, but it would use less energy and would have much better video speed.

Just wondering if anyone knows if Everex packages a legal DVD decoder in their version of linux (like Dell does)

Looks a bit smaller than the Mini. Actually, it looks like a cheapo Conia DVD player.

Hi Scott

Thanks for the comment, but I didn’t Scrape it from Electronista, I rewrote it and gave them credit as the source of my information.

The site which scraped it used a scraper program, which took the exact text from this site, and used my images which are hosted on my server, so it basically took the whole article.

Everytime someone from Digg went to the other site, the images were being taken from my server and using up my bandwidth, which I am paying for.

I only just found out when I noticed how much bandwidth had been used today over 5GB.

The other site has changed their article now, before it was an exact copy of the one above, using the images hosted on this website.

Cheers

Why the comment about another site “scraping” this article, all you did is scrape it from electronista.com?

he just meant that it doesn’t matter what OS or computer you have, as long as you have internet access, you have Gmail and Facebook…they aren’t linked applications or applications at all! they’re websites, n00b. and gOS is pretty crappy, mainly intended for outdated computers with little resources…do you even use Linux?

Hi Even More Stupid

It is a shame you felt you had to use a false name to post your comments.

I have corrected the post to reflect that gMail is a linked application.

I have also added a link to the manufacturers product page should anyone be interested.

Cheers

gmail isn’t an application, it’s a webservice, there’s nothing to install on the machine. Saying it comes with firefox is saying it comes with gmail, hotmail, digg.com, google.com etc.
