grrr

Just dropped my laptop (an old Compaq Presario) on the floor... The screen now remains snow white, but the rest seems to have survived. At least I'll be able to extract its content. I store in arch or backup almost everything I use regularely, but one never knows... I'll try to see if there is some hope for the screen tomorrow, I don't think it's a good idea to open it just before going to bed...

I just hate buying unnecessary expensive stuff, not because I don't appreciate new toys, but rather because I really don't like making myself the target of the many marketing tools that come with these kinds of activities.

Ok, so does anyone have a good suggestion for a linux laptop? no need for high performances, rather sth light, silent, and robust...
