QLITech Systems

[Shea Ferring]

I picked up a QLITech desktop a few months ago and have been happy with it,
though I haven't had to try out their service or support yet. Hope that
helps...

Has anyone here tried the QLITech (Tuxtop) Labtops?  I'm thinking of
getting an Emperor.

Two things really bug me about Dell:

First, Dell doesn't seem very interested in selling Linux Laptops.  I got
the feeling the sales rep thought something was wrong with me wanting a
Linux based laptop.  Half the things I was interested in getting wasn't
supported (Port rep/CD-RW). I was also told I couldn't order more than 260
MB of memory.  I was thinking of getting 512.  (They had a special going,
they would match the amount of memory you bought and I was going to get
256 MB anyway).

The other thing that really burns me is I priced the same configuration
using Windoes 2000 Pro and it came out 3 dollors cheaper.  I feel like I'm
still having to buy a copy of Windows I don't want.

On the otherhand, two things bother me about the Emperor:

One is the don't allow returns.  If you buy it, and don't like it, do bad.
This really bothers me because a few years ago I bought a laptop from
another small company (Twinhead), and I've been sorry ever since.

Second, is it is a lot more expensive.

So I was wondering if anyone has direct knowlage of either QLITech and/or
the Emperor.

TIA, rna
