Picking a new laptop
by joe@zeff.us
I'm still trying to get my current laptop running again, but I'm probably going to need to get a new one. If nothing else, this one doesn't really have enough memory and it's maxed out.
Right now, I'm also trying to get Xubuntu loaded onto my sister's Acer Aspire 1, and having considerable difficulty getting it to boot from the USB. I'm not comfortable with her new laptop and would rather not get myself an Acer. If any of you have had good experiences recently with getting Fedora installed on a laptop, suggestions would be very welcome.

by ToddAndMargo
Hi All,
Fedora 35
qemu-kvm-6.1.0-10.fc35.x86_64
Will qemu-kvm map a usb/blue tooth transceiver
through to Windows 11?
Many thanks,
