Hi Dennisk!

04 May 2020 11:08, from Dennisk -> Richard Menedetter:

I recently bought a Pinebook Pro.
A very low end laptop based on th pine SoC.
(Arm 2 big cores + 4 little cores with 4 GB RAM)

I like it very much, as it has enough horsepower for 99% of the things I do,
and it has a really long battery life.
I usually have 2-3 terminal windows open, and 2-3 Firefox Windows.
But one of them contains more than 100 tabs. (I now I am insane)

It performs nicely.

I am using Golded ony my worklaptop over shellinabox over a HTTPS connection.
Works really nicely, and I can also use it when I am logged into the company
VPN.

CU, Ricsi
