Looks like an ideal garage/paddock lappy, just ordered one myself.

Always happy to be of assistance, Alladidn. :d

Would be interested to know what you think of it when it arrives.

Are you tempted to be a guinea pig on a touchscreen fix? If so, I think I may have a solution. Only proviso being that, if it works, details are kept quiet until anyone on here who then wants one has a machine on order.

Should have known that our resident TV personality would have one. Part of yet another celebrity endorsement deal was it, Steve? :)

Yes

for sure, I will pm you on delivery.

Ditto that - just ordered one :cool: can stop borrowing my sisters pink laptop now :oops:

 

Use work laptop for everything I need at home but can't install software so plugging into Omex is a no go :down: Not worth me spending £3-400 on a laptop just for plugging into the car :t-up:

 

Thanks for the headsup WEC :yes:

Mind you, I suppose I'd better get rid of some of the stack of IBM Thinkpads I've got for garage use.  :blush:  :down:

I knew I should have done a commission deal on these before posting!

 

I'm still trying to resist, but will probably succumb by midweek when everyone else has new toys and I don't...  :cry:

Stop it... stop it... stop it... the voices in my head are already a bad enough influence without you lot!

Excuse my ignorance here, but what's a machine like this going to be like for pure Internet use and occasional word processor and paint ?

I'm thinking it maybe an ideal machine forum 7yr olds ... When it not plugged into the ecu!

I've never seen one , let alone used one... Would it be any good for kids?

Hello,

I am trying to get one, and tried to send a message to the seller to see if he would acccept shipping it to Portugal but ebay does not let me send messages to this seller.

Anyone knows the seller?

Thanks

That's me Chris. TV personality of Northwich.

Dave your welcome to mine, if you want to make an image of the HDD.

Same goes for anyone else

To be fair they're nothing special.

The touch screen is ok, but you just tend to use the mouse like normal.

It's small and the key board is small compared to a normal laptop.

Screen is too small really.

Only positives are the serial port and the fact it's rock solid/waterproof.
