  • hp dv2 is better than this

  • HP dv2 is better in terms of computational performance. But mini 12 is fanless, last twice longer and much cheaper. Both of them are good. They are just different. dv2 is closer to laptop, mini 12 is closer to netbook.

  • how much memory does your mini 12 have? 1gb or 2gb?

    where can i download the correct version of ubuntu that will be supported on the mini 12. i dunno if they have changed the chip but mine is gma 500 and struggles with ubuntu

  • I am currently using Jaunty (9.04, i386). UNR works fine, too. The thing you have to do is to add repository to the synaptics and get the polusbo graphic driver. I can't add any URL here so just google "PPA for Ubuntu Mobile Team" then find the lines that begin with deb, go to synaptic and add them. Reload the database then search for poulsbo driver. There is a extensive thread in Ubuntu forum for installing Ubuntu on Dell mini 12. You should take a look and if you find any problem, ask them.

  • I installed the poulsbo driver but it still seems to lag. is there anything else i can do to improve performance? I have looked all over the dell and ubuntu threads

  • The only substantial upgrade you can do is to get a fast solid state drive like Mtron. It is expensive (>$200)but you can feel the difference.

  • what song is this???

  • Ubuntu comes with openoffice, an almost excact copy of microsoft office and its comatible with it. It comes with a lot of software and there are free ubuntu replica's for almost every thinkable program.
