Ubuntu 9.04: 32-bit vs 64-bit benchmarks
,----[ Quote ]
| Most Linux users run a 32-bit distro, and many of them run a 32-bit distro on
| a 64-bit computer. The question is, why? We put 32-bit Ubuntu 9.04
| head-to-head with its 64-bit counterpart to see what difference it really
| makes, and whether old compatibility worries are justified.

The Fastest Boot in the West
,----[ Quote ]
| Granted, the fast seek times for data access with the SSD contributed to
| Xandros's (the eeePC OS) speedy boot time, but users became enamored with the
| quick, "less than one minute," access to their apps. Thus was born the race
| to the fastest boot time.

| Remember, xPUD is a DIY OS. Therefore, many exciting features like xPUD
| Switch Mode (the ability to toggle into another OS, a la Splashtop) haven't
| been implemented yet. That's where you come in. You can help with the
| development of xPUD. What do you get for your effort? A backstage pass to
| helping with the development of a real contender to the moniker "fastest-boot
| OS" in the West (and the East).
