Are there any installation reports about Linux on laptops or notebooks in Arabic? I would like to include them into the language section of the TuxMobil: Linux Laptop and Notebook Installation Survey.

I guess no.

I'll try to free some time and translate my mini-howto, But this'll take long as I'm overloaded with work and multiple dead lines these days.

What's the format you prefere ?

I forgot to tell you where you would find the Acer Laptops. Acer has two show rooms. One in Zamaled and another in Helipoplis.

The one in helipolis is in a store called سوق العصر براندز in roxy
