Computers are becoming cool again

,----[ Quote ]
| Lenovoâs Ultra portable Skylight smart book, 
| is also powered by efficient cell processors 
| most of us have never heard of. It runs on a 
| Lenovo user interface on Linux, although you 
| wouldnât know it when using it. One battery 
| charge gives you 11 hours on the go. It has 
| WiFi and always - connected cellular 3G. It 
| basically bridges what has been missing 
| between smart phones and Netbooks.

A no-cost Windows killer: On Sale Now, only $26!

,----[ Quote ]
| A quick visit to Ubuntu.com, and I found 
| Buying Ubuntu on CD and DVD. This links to 
| authorized distributors all over the planet, 
| and their pricing is rather different than 
| WashingtonCD. For example, at On-disk.com CDs 
| and DVDs are under $5.00US, and couple bucks 
| for shipping. (WashingtonCD is not an 
| authorized distributor.) Canonical will ship 
| you a CD edition for free. Really free, not 
| free + money.
| 
| Don't wait, folks, get your unauthorized no-
| cost Windows killer for only $20 + $6 shipping 
| now!

Intel's AppUp Center Could Enhance Netbooks and Mobile Devices

,----[ Quote ]
| The new AppUp Center apps will also be cross-
| platform, meaning that they can run on a
| Windows-based netbook or a Linux-based MID.
| This is important since the low-powered
| devices can struggle with Windows 7, and since
| many consumers are reluctant to embrace Linux
| and its unfamiliar applications. Intel is also
| using AppUp to lay the groundwork for Atom-
| and Linux-powered smartphones. By the time the
| processors become low-powered enough to be
| jammed into a handset, Intel hopes it will
| have built a sizable catalog of applications
| capable of running on its Moblin (or any
| other) Linux platform.
