10? I though it was more like 3! I certainly wouldn't mind
one for Christmas if the framerate's any good. :-)
ObFrustration: IT'S ABOUT TIME!!!! :-) Gah, computers
these days. Apart from this ASUS product (which will
be officially announced Friday, apparently), the C64 and
variants of the Apple ][, Amiga and presumably Atari as
well could be instantly on. Why has it taken Microsoft so
long that ASUS decided to upstage them with a *Linux*-based
product?
One wonders.
BTW...save some for me, you glutton. :-) Let's hope ASUS
has a winner here.
