What is Best?

Post by Mr_Navigator »

I currently have an old XP based laptop, not doing much and slowed to a snails pace even with a fresh install.

So, I have installed LUBUNTU as it is a light install, Laptop runs fast and fine

Installed QPC2 using Wine
Installed SMSQemulator also
I now want to include links to websites and other programs (possibly) as icons and make this a QL based only laptop.

So I have started with the following list and I know this maybe a personal thing but are there any others I should include or have missed. I am looking at a maximum of about 24 links including software.

in no particular order


Dilwyns site
RWAP software
Sell MY Retro
qlis30.org.uk
http://www.qlforum.co.uk/
quanta
Sinclair QL Preservation Project
Sinclair QL Computer Wiki
The Sinclair QL and QDOS compatible systems site
SMSQemulator
QPC2
JMS
quo vadis design
Sandy


any others?????






btw has anyone seen this http://sinclair-uk.weebly.com/sinclair-os.html

I have an old P3 laptop that I keep a small xp install on and use only with qemulator. Once you start chucking the internet at it you are in trouble, so I don't bother with it on there :)

You should remove Sandy. I am still regrouping from the financial defeat there.

I'm quietly assembling Auroras in the background, but nothing else is happening for a while.

I had the same experience with XP but LUBUNTU works really well at the moment 8-)
