Re: [LAU] intel/amd barebones notebooks

ive got one. they cant be that rare.. as AMD has long been preferred by many who build pcs on top of barebones platforms id look up Clevo, Compal, Asus, and MSI

ive got a MSI AMD 12", 64bit single-core, from fall 2005 just about every cable in it that could possible broke, has eg the screen dims out, had to pilfer wireless antennae from a Dell (which used 10x better cabling and connectors to begin with), replace the power adaptor cord (which shorted out internally and created some nice acrid smoke), plug in an external kbd as the internal one touches the case below shorting it out and either powering off the machine or sending 'rogue' characters, and get a pcmcia soundcard since the internal one lost its left channel after bumping into the plug lightly while headphones were connected (ive since dropped/bumped the Indigo's port with much higher tension, and its still fine, seems to be shock-mounted or has really flexible spring-metal or something..

but yeah, it still works. my thinkpad died sooner, but it was an A series that they no longer make, and had an entirely plastic chassis..
