Slax and Ubuntu on Dell Latitude X1

Latitude X1M and I have just finished our four-month journey through South America, where our trusty Dell Latitude X1 performed miserably—crashing due to high elevation only 2 weeks into our trip (Thankfully after some of M’s important work was finished and backed up).

A USB-key version of Slax (I believe v.5.0.8) connected us to our blogs and email and kept our photos moving onto DVD during the 6 weeks in the altiplano of Peru and Bolivia (journeys on Titicaca and the Uyuni Salar).
