Hi all:

I plan to buy a new laptop to install a Linux OS and EDA tools (IC5141, laker and calibre ...)
But I am not familiar with these, so

Could you give me some information that you have install them in your laptop:

1. which laptop (ex: acer Aspier S7-391-53334G12aws07)
2. which linux os (ex: centos 6.0 64-bit)
3. EDA tools version that install successful.

Thanks for your kindly help

Some Lenovo laptops with doulble video chipsets have BIOS' bug ...
 

I strongly recommend against an ASUS laptop.My friend recently brought one,couldn't install linux either from bios or wubi. Seems to have some problem & even their customer-care have no clue about the problem.
Dell laptops are good
 

Hi rahdirs:

Do you have the model of Dell that is good to install?

@mpig09: I've been using Dell Inspiron N5010 for the past two years & I also use Fedora OS.
I don't know if that particular model is still available,but in general Dell's customer-care is known to be very good,especially in India.not sure in other places.

This is just my suggestion,but if possible take suggestion from ppl in linux forum(http://www.linuxforums.org/)

No LM358 opamp isn't in the list of opamps that you see after installing LT Spice.
But you can find a model of it which you can add it to LT Spice.You can download model of LM 358 & add it to LT Spice from link below;

Or you can run the simulation with an LT1013. It's a dual precision op amp that works with single supply and i think it can be used as a replacement for the LM358.

Here is a sort of "master list" of spice models on the web:
