Review: Pioneer Dreambook Light IL1
Cheap notebooks with preinstalled Linux distributions conquer Western markets. Polish hardware distributors did notice it and one of them launched a new subnotebook in the Polish market. They call it: Airis I-Design IL-1 Nanobook.
There is no mistake in the paragraph above - IL-1 (short for “I’d Love 1″) will be distributed together with “normal” laptops. Linpus will be the OS preinstalled by default, however, Windows XP freaks will be able to get it (they will have to pay extra for it of course). It will be distributed in Poland by: Lognetmedia.
Linpus Lite 9.4, which is the preinstaled OS, does not require any user or root passwords by default, so anyone who prices security will have to set them manually or disable autologin in gdm. The system itself is easy to handle thanks to a modified interface, which has already been described by Riklaunim. Available applications are the most popular or the most interesting based on their category (browser - Firefox, email client - Thunderbird, Office - OpenOffice.org, IM - pidgin, VoIP - ekiga, movie player - smplayer, picture browser - f-spot and so on).
