China making own PCs running with Linux but please shut up about it. And why
are you running those damn pictures?

| No one wanted the news released. It appears to have been a major clanger
| on someone?s part.
|
| China Youth Daily ran this on Sina Tech (it is a Chinese site and unless
| you read Chinese gets you nowhere) and all hell broke lose. It was
| not authorized. The site was firmly asked to remove the story. As of
| this writing this has not happened.
|
| There is serious upset at Lemote and Godson that the news has
| leaked. They are as annoyed as Steve Jobs would be in a similar
| situation. Still it has happened. And we have photographs of the
| machine which you see above. Probably the first English language
| site to do so.

These machines are underpowered for Windows. You can assume that Linux will
grow in China.
