I think there is always a market for business apps that deliver value. We're a startup ourselves and pay for Basecamp and Highrise - sure there are free alternatives but BC and HR are intuitive and easy to setup and when you have non-techie

Although the first rule of a startup is build something people want (after PG) more and more that something should solve some "serious" problem (after O'Reilly). Please - no more social networks! Cheers

Haven't tried it yet since I use Linux at work and Mac at home. If nothing else I think Chrome sets the bar higher for the incumbents - process isolation in a browser is a nice innovation. Cheers

Anything is possible but the due diligence on your idea is enormous. Good luck getting investment. 1.5M probably won't even cover the upfront legal costs.

We use Toshiba A200-AH9 laptops running Ubuntu. Intel wifi just works. 9-cell battery. Only downside is the resolution if you don't use an external monitor and no bluetooth.
