Install restricted extras and flash in usual ubuntuguide.org way. I am surprised that firefox is not there, but you may grab firefox from mozilla's original download site. Also if you install Opera, flash will be installed automatically.

Have you tried it under linux? We need a thread for webcams working with skype in ubuntu/linux. Most of the webcams that are suggested by ubuntu wiki are not available in India.

The webcams generate crappy low contrast/brightness pictures, so buy any samsung monitor, they have very high B/C to handle this kind of scenarios. If the mic is separate it can be placed at different positions, that can be useful in situations. I think a bluetooth headphone(any cheap one will...

The idle power consumption of MSI 785GM-E51 is impressive compared to other boards: An Average Joe - MSI 785GM-E51 :: Articles :: www.hardwarezone.com

I would choose a Gigabyte or Asus G41 chipset mobo and E5300. Preferebly giga EG41, since it is touted to be energy efficient. Intel's 2D graphics handling is quite satisfactory and that is important from coreldraw point of view.

There is a thread discussing A.S.S of biostar(Abacus) in this forum, it seems it's after sales is good. Go for the AMD solution.

Does it emanate any light which will be distracting during night?

Most eco-freindy is the atom with mini-itx boards. Apart from it, intel mini-itx boards are there for g-41 & g-45 chipsets, so that these can be coupled with e-5200. You don't need a separate graphics card.That will help reducing the power consumption drastically. Athlon II 240 + 785g from amd...

What's the model no.? ... TA785GE ?

You need lots of vertical space, so don't get a widescreen monitor. Since you are not doing graphics work but only design work, I don't think you need accurate color reproduction, reasonably good color reproduction will be enough for the task. Dell ultrasharp 20" would be the best option, if...

Set 'Color Tone' to "Cool'

Even if you weren't OCing the E5200(&upwards) had made the athlon series of processors very unattractive,almost irrelevant. Now with the introduction of athlon II, the e5200,etc have some alternative.

G31 is a generation old, absolutely no question of getting a g31 now, using a igp reduces the power consumption drastically(almost halves), and newer igps are directx10 compatible and support hardware video acceleration, these should satisfy everybody except hardcore gamers(they need a game...

It has just been introduced, prices will surely come down in a short time. In AMD platform I have a better choice of igp at reasonable prices.

Time to visit the stores! Thank you for the info.
