Is that you Louis?
Garbage trucks, school busses and postal vans are the lowest hanging fruit for electrification. If we can't do that we are not the greatest country in the world.
The Windows world won't go away, but let me tell you how great Chromebooks are in an education environment.
We have about 1/3 of our fleet in Chromebooks and 2/3 in Windows 7 (no, I won't even consider 8 thank you).
I spend several hours a month dealing with Chrome issues. I spend several hours a day on Windows issues. It becomes a simple math problem.
Plus, if you really need a Windows program mainframe2 will launch soon. Run that thing in the cloud.......
x120e doesn't have an optical drive due to the size, and several different CPU/chipset configs. Changing the internal WiFi is dead simple. I've had middle school kids do it.
Why you got a lockup? It's a mystery.......
Not sure I would run linux on such a tiny (and frankly fragile) device. I have 240 x120/30/31's in my fleet. Never tried Linux on them.
Got a couple getting new HDD's so now I have to try it.
Damn you!
Still waiting on Mainframe2 to come out of hiding. Uses streaming video for the display, seems so solve a large number of problems..... except for Microsoft.
Not that it would have made the car great, but it was designed with a different motor.
GM had a Wankel in development and DeLorean (and AMC in the Pacer) was going to use that.
Sadly it never got out of development and JD went with the PRV V6 (not know for much of anything other than being in a lot of Volvos)
DeLorean went with the "cocaine rebate" instead.
If nothing else you have to admit John had some grande cojones trying to pull that one off.
