Dell & Ubuntu's mighty Mini 9

Dell & Ubuntu's mighty Mini 9 Want a great Linux netbook for a great price? Then, give Dell's Ubuntu-powered Mini 9 a try. I like netbooks. They tend to be small, powerful and you can easily get them with Linux. Not all netbooks are created equal, though, and some are clearly better than others. One of the best is the Dell Mini 9.
In the not even two years since Asus changed the laptop world with the first true netbook, the Eee PC 4G, I've used many netbooks, such as the ASUS Eee 1000. My new favorite though is the Dell Inspiron Mini 9.
It starts with the look and heft of the device. Some netbooks feel like their prices: cheap. Not, the Mini 9. It feels solid and well-made.

AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Linux Performance Boosted By Updated BIOS/AGESA
With last week's initial launch-day Linux benchmarks of the Ryzen 5 2600X / Ryzen 7 2700X some found the Linux performance to be lower than Windows. While the root cause is undetermined, a BIOS/AGESA update does appear to help the Linux performance significantly at least with the motherboard where I've been doing most of my tests with the Ryzen 7 2700X. Here are the latest benchmark numbers.
