[57north-discuss] Laptop

[Robert McWilliam]

I have a spare laptop (I was keeping it as a backup machine, but it's now 5 deep in my list of spare machines so is unlikely to be needed) that I'm happy to give to the space.

It's not great spec but definitely beats the little atom netbook we were using for the 3D printer so I think should be useful. 

Toshiba Z830, i5-2467M, 6GB RAM, 128GB SSD

At least one of the USB ports doesn't work and there are a few splodges on the screen that are a bit brighter than the rest. I doubt there is much battery life left in it - it was completely flat when I dug it out yesterday. 

It's got Debian on it, upgrade to buster is currently running. 

Do other people think this would be useful or breach of rule 4?  

Robert
