Will Lintel Replace Wintel and iStuff?
,----[ Quote ]
| I see this as a major blow to what we techies have historically referred to
| as the Wintel market. Wintel refers to Intel systems running Microsoft's
| Windows software. We frequently talk about Wintel boxes and Wintel
| architecture and I'm sure that some of that will continue but now, with this
| acquisition, we'll soon refer to devices as Lintel to distinguish their Linux
| operating system from Windows on a particular piece of hardware.

Windows Unix Subsystem finally catches up to Wine
,----[ Quote ]
| This is just some interesting reading you guys might enjoy. It seems, the
| Unix subsystem will give you the ability to create a mixed application able
| to call Win32 and Unix functionality. In effect PSX becomes like wineserver
| and you have to wrap your win32 libs as posix libraries. (sound familure).
