First look: the Maemo 5 multimedia framework

,----[ Quote ]
| Nokia has announced the availability of the second Maemo 5 SDK pre-alpha 
| release. This version introduces some important functionality, including a 
| sophisticated new framework for multimedia development. Although it is still 
| at an early stage of development, the SDK provides deep insight into the 
| architecture of the next generation Maemo platform.

Entering dragon land—the Loongson laptop

,----[ Quote ]
| Hu Weiwu began to develop the Loongson in 2002 at the Chinese Academy of 
| Sciences. Well, actually at the Institute of Computing Technology, but those 
| are kind of attached. The first generation chip, a 32-bit 
| almost-MIPS-compatible, was put into a handful of computers for rural 
| children in Sichuan in 2006: the Sinomanic Tianhua GX series. These systems 
| were similar to a Commodore64 and were basically keyboards that plugged into 
| a TV and ran a bare bones Linux OS.
