Netbook boasts Linux multi-track recording suite

,----[ Quote ]
| Trinity Audio Group announced a netbook version of its Linux-based 
| multi-track recording product. The Indamixx Netbook Model 2 is an Intel 
| Atom-based MSI Wind, with a 10-inch screen, 3G, and a 160GB hard drive, 
| pre-installed with Trinity Audio's digital mixing and editing suite.    
| 
| [...]
| 
| The preloaded Linux software mix still appears to be based largely on 
| 64Studio, a community project that maintains a Linux distribution for 
| creative content professionals, such as A/V producers and recording 
| engineers. However, Trinity Audio has now ported its suite to a "Transmission 
| 3.0" distribution based on Ubuntu Linux 9.04, says the company.

Dell baffles buyers with new netbook

,----[ Quote ]
| Dell has announced a 'new' netbook, the Inspiron Mini10v, an eerily similar 
| model to the company's previous offering, the plain Mini 10. The obvious 
| difference is price, which drops to £200 in the cheapest Ubuntu Linux 
| version.   
| 
| The price reduction has been achieved by stripping out the odd feature that 
| most netbook buyers would hardly have used, specifically the HDMI interface, 
| and by using a different graphics chipset, the plain Intel GMA 500 rather 
| than the equally basic Intel GMA 945GSE.

Linux does have a future on netbooks

,----[ Quote ]
| That reminds me. Dell is now offering the newer Ubuntu 8.10 on its Inspiron
| 15n laptop. In the past, they were only offering the LTS (Long Term Service)
| Ubuntu 7.04. Check it out. You see, Dell is taking desktop Linux seriously.
|
| All the other big vendors, including Lenovo, make it almost impossible to
| find their desktop Linux offerings. You’d almost think they want desktop
| Linux to fail, and they’re only offering it because those darn, pesky
| customers keep asking for it.
