*Linux Laptop Wiki [Rebooted]*

The aim of the website is to provide a central wiki to post experiences with Linux on the model of laptop / notebook you're using.

Linlap.info is an attempt to 'reboot' the abandoned and spammed linlap dot com which is now unusable.

Please consider participating on building a new "HQ" sending in your model / experiences!

Any help appreciated!

He's the force behind the titles such as:

* "The Secret of Monkey Island"

* "Maniac Mansion"

* "Thimbleweed Park"

To name a few.

"My goal is to see how far I can get developing my new game on directly on Linux and not the Mac (I haven't developed on Windows in years).

Can I ditch the Mac and go 100% Linux?".
