[Discuss-gnuradio] laptop recommendations

[Roshan Baliga]

Hi All,

I looked through the gnuradio archive, and couldn't find this topic, so 
I'm posting.

Does anyone have a current recommendation for a laptop for use with 
gnuradio? I've never had a problem with any desktop running Ubuntu 
6.0.6, but the first laptop I tried (Dell Latitude D520) had rx 
overruns. I'm guessing the USB 2.0 chipset it uses sucks.

In any case, if anybody uses a laptop with ubuntu and gnuradio, I'd love 
to know about it, because I need to buy a laptop for some testing. 
Preferably something on the cheaper side, but not a 8 lbs brick.
