Now get a laptop for just Rs 20k!

- CamZak, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Having an acer 3680 myself, I can say Linux runs fairly well on it. Beryl runs at a decent 40fps for most effects, except for the transparent desktop cube which drops the fps rather low. But I'd gladly trade an extra 512MB of ram for the dreaded 'windows tax'. Only a few issues...but hey...I have beryl on a laptop...can't complain.
