Linux appliance adds DTV support
,----[ Quote ]
| Parisian startup Linutop has updated the Linux-based firmware for its
| compact, low-power, Geode-based Internet appliance. The V1.2 firmware
| features an improved graphics driver and media player, enabling the Linutop
| mini-PC to serve as a DVB-T rendering device or digital video kiosk, the
| vendor claims.

SlashGear Review: Linutop's fanless Linux PC
,----[ Quote ]
| Much to my shame, Linux is something of a mystery to me. Actually,
| I think they should teach at least the basics of it in school
| computing classes, alongside English and at least one foreign
| language (though don't ask me about my French abilities either), but
| this is neither time nor place for my election campaigning. And so I
| look on with maudlin self-disgust at promises of Dell laptops with
| Linux pre-installed, or clever thumb-drives and Live CDs that offer
| a chance to fiddle with the OS without ruining your everyday copy of
| Windows; I inevitably fold when faced with some sort of command
| prompt. Perhaps, then, you?ll wonder why I was so keen to try the
| Linutop, a surprisingly compact and silent diskless computer that
| runs a specially tweaked version of xubuntu.
