Was picking up a computer from Carrefour when I spotted this cheap laptop which seemed like a steal. The specs are: Intel Celeron 2.2Ghz, 1GB RAM, 160GB hard drive, 14″ screen, wifi, webcam and a DVD writer. The laptop comes with no operating system and they’re selling it for KD129.500.

with no operating system you say ? well thats interesting.
Majority of laptops being sold comes with the LOVELY vista. I would kill for an XP os.
The other day I saw a nice HP laptop, nice specs and all, and yes, Vista.
Windows 7 > vista > xp 🙂
Intel “Celeron”
That’s the catch.
Try running one of those Chinese-made Celeron processors for one or two hours, and you will know why it’s so cheap…
no operating system?? how will it… operate?
@KA Fan : Woh hold it there brother Windows7 > XP > vista.
@Amjad: lol you do have a point
@mm hm: it will operate once you manage to install it yourself 🙂
@Mark: so did you pick this one ?
dude intel cerelon or whatever its called aint this proccessor is old ?
no OS i think your going to install OX in this arn’t you ?
Celeron is a good processor to alot of people…Not everyone wants a high performance machine…
It comes pre-loaded with linux…not compatible with XP, only Vista.
I picked it up yesterday for my father… He does very light work on Office, and browses the internet…
And….so far so good. I tried installing XP, but i got the BSOD twice. So I tried Vista, and it went very smoothly.
The overall Vista Rating is 3.5 (The Graphics Card being the low denominator…)
I guess for regular office work, it is a good deal.
Well you can always install the free OS called Linux..:P
No virus no hassle
Win7>XP>VIsa. Thats how it goes! M trying it on ma acer one netbook, and it runs really smooth.
