yeah but i'm thinking it might be perfect for my mum. her old imac is running 9.2 and she just wants to surf her email and bid on trademe - for this price, i can buy her one for xmas every other year and never need to update her software! i'm not an early adopter but i'm going to keep an eye on this for later.
also - a great school pc for kids (?)
- dangph 19y agoIt has a little screen. Does she have good eyesight?
- jgamman 19y agohmm, good point, i really need to see one in the plastic
- Tichy 19y agoI got my mum a decent laptop from ebay for 300EUR, and installed Linux on it. At first I also thought she would only email and surf the web, but recently she asked for Google Earth and got herself a digital camera. On average, my parents do more weird stuff with the computer than I do (for example my mum keeps scanning things to email them to friends). Maybe the OLPC would be better than the eec? I think the eec's display looks ugly, what's up with the big borders?
