Review: Moblin 2.1

,----[ Quote ]
| Conclusions:  I liked Moblin quite a bit.  It 
| was easy to use and generally intuitive.  I 
| didn't try to customize it very much, but look 
| forward to a long-term test drive on my laptop 
| to see how flexible it is in extended everyday 
| use.  The project has a lot of potential to 
| improve Linux's reputation in terms of 
| usability and polish, and has already attracted 
| corporate sponsors who could put badly-needed 
| marketing muscle behind it.

ARM SMP

,----[ Quote ]
| We are only a few weeks into 2010 and there is 
| word that ARM will be doing the SMP/multi-core 
| thing and still run 12 hours on a charge. Are 
| we there yet? Yes. These devices have all the 
| power normal users need, in a phone handset. 
| Imagine what ARM can put in a desktop or 
| notebook. The reign of x86-64 is nearing an 
| end.

| "Heron," and "Merlin."
