[advocacy-discuss] OpenSolaris Toshiba Laptops Now Available in US!

[Uros Nedic]

  Price is a little bit expensive, and Fujitsu&Siemens Amilo series
(Pa 3553, for example, among others) with AMD/ATI CPU/GPU could be
bought cheaper (more than 30%).

  You should establish cooperation with F&S. Also, they produce laptops
with 15.1" and Toshiba's are 14.1" in screen size.

  This business model won't work at the long term.

Very happy to announce the OpenSolaris Toshiba laptops are now  
available for purchase in the US via the OpenSolaris.com shop site,  
see OpenSolaris.com for details.  Availability is in the US only to  
start, we're targeting adding the UK in about 1 month and we're  
working hard to expand world-wide later this year once we have the  
support chains worked out with the Toshiba folks.

Links to the product details page, as well as to the specific laptops  
(Tecra M10 and Portege R600) are available below...

I got my R600 last week, and I have to say while there are a few rough  
edges we're continuing to work out, it's pretty sweet.  Be sure to  
check out the page above as well for Getting Started info which  
includes some little gotchas you can easily work around on these an  
other similar laptops you might be running.
