Milonix Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Hey, I am in the market for a new computer, and i am not sure if i should get the Nokia booklet 3g or a laptop. I am wondering what you guy's think... Quote
Milonix Posted January 1, 2011 Author Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) What do you intend to use it for? Well, I've never had a laptop at all so I am working with a Desktop only, and what I am mainly going to do is install Linux, not sure of what distro, irc, surfing the web that kinda thing, pen-testing on my network that'll be soon setting up.

Sparda Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Every thing will probably work on Ubuntu except (Probably) the 3G adapter. I'd Google a bit before buying any kind of 3G device and install Linux. Quote

I'd Google a bit before buying any kind of 3G device and install Linux. Yeah, I have googled it and I found people that install ubuntu with no problems at all, and there are others that say they cant get the graphic drivers to work. So now, I don't know if the one that has all these problems is incompetent. This is why I am asking here to find out what others use. Now, one of the biggest things that draw me to the nokia booklet isn't the 3g but its how sexy it looks. I also, haven't found anything in a small size like the nokia booklet and the look as equally sexy. As far as laptops go, I don't think they are as mobile as a netbook/booklet, sure they might have bigger hard drives and more ram etc.. I am not exactly going to be gaming on this, thats what I have a desktop for. Quote
