Penetration Tester
by Tal Cohen
I need a penetration tester (individual or firm) to run some tests against my network.
Anyone have any recommendations they care to share?
Thanks!

GPS
by Mike Leo
I have a great little Lenovo netbook and I haven't found a good use for the expresscard 34 slot
I've been researching GPS devices but can't find an ExpressCard 34 style GPS device.
I could get a normal GPS device with a screen and junk, but that would defeat the purpose of my search.
Does anyone have experience with using a laptop with a GPS device?
FYI: I already have maxed out the ram and have a 150gig hard drive, plus a webcam and bluetooth...if anyone can think of a better use of the Expresscard, I'd like to hear that, too!

Re: [Wlug] Looking at new and inexpensive laptop for Linux use.

Hello Joel/Every1,
Have a look see at these 4 HCL sites of Linux compatible hardware:
http://www.linux-drivers.org/
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/
http://www.linux-drivers.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_compatibility_list - this gives you
links to the other distros...
They will have mucho details! Besides, half the joy I find in installing is
having to hack something to work and helping the software improve for the
next person. =)
Enjoy the weekend,
Joseph

Hi all,
I am considering replacing my old broken screen laptop (Pent 350 &
256MB) with a replacement.
Does anyone recommendations on $400 to $600 laptops for Linux with a
regular 15" or so screen and at least 2-4GB RAM. I am going with a
low-spec (and low cost) as I have used the laptop an hour or two a
week in the past as for daily use my eyes prefer my desktop's 24"
widescreen LCD.
In this price range I am mostly finding Netbooks and the occasional
low end Acer (newegg). I could handle the speed of a netbook but my
older and poor eyes would protest (and the additional RAM cost makes
them spendy-ish for what you get).
Any recommendations for a new, regular 15" or so standard notebook on
the cheap for Linux use (prob. Ubuntu or KUbuntu)? I am thinking my
concerns here and hardware compatibility and cost.
Thank you,
Joel
