[ILUG] OT: Anyone interested in a brand spanking new laptop (still in sh rink wrap)

[ILUG] OT: Anyone interested in a brand spanking new laptop (still in sh rink wrap)

I ordered one, then I realised it has a DSTN screen, and I don't wan't it
anymore. 

Here is the model  <<...OLE_Obj...>> 

Its got "Hand-Bag" colours that I personally don't like, but it does look
cool, or so my wife says. (I already had one but it was robbed) 

I haven't even collected it from the shop yet. If anyone is interested then
mail me today, otherwise I am cancelling the order. 
It costs - today - IR1599 - in Compustore Long Mile road ph: Ph: 01-450 6255
(I just called them)
So for ilug, its 1200. OK! - I would normally charge less but I have already
filled my quota for orders for the entire year (bloody family) and I cannot
buy another. 
A collegue of mine has debian on his one (same model) and everything works
fine. The modem is a crap winmodem, but I have heard reports that it works
with linux, with a few kicks. 

Here is the link.
