I'm seriously considering to get one from them. Which laptop did you buy? Galago UltraPro? How is it when compared to MacBook or Thinkpads?

- mrj 13y agoMy work laptop is a Macbook Pro 13'' also running Linux, so I feel like I can compare them. :-) I maxed out a Darter. I am happy with it and it was much cheaper than a comparable featured Macbook. It is crazy fast and I was happy about the touch screen (I have a toddler who likes to play some edu games). Build quality is good, there's no creaking. I love that it has an HDMI out (1.3 I think?) so I don't need any adapters. Same with Ethernet. The battery is really small compared to the Macbook, so don't expect the same battery life. I bought a second for conferences. The trackpad sucks but I almost always use an external mouse for serious stuff. It's fine for web browsing. I don't miss the sharp metal edges of the Macbook. Edit: the Galago's trackpad doesn't have the buttons or weird texture on it, so I bet it is much nicer to use.
