The Userâs Manifesto: in defense of hacking, modding, and jailbreaking
,----[ Quote ]
| These questions are natural, because a few
| years ago they wouldnât even be possible. What
| reason would you have for breaking open an
| first-generation iPod, or hacking an original
| Playstation? The question of âunauthorized
| softwareâ on System 9 and Windows XP was
| plainly moot. But as the capabilities of the
| PC, console, and phone have expanded, so have
| their magisteria. And as their power grew, so
| did their chains. These chains were so light
| before that we didnât notice them, but now
| that they are not only visible but are
| beginning to truly encumber our devices, we
| must consider whether we are right to throw
| them off. The answer, to me at least, seems
| obvious: no company or person has the right to
| tell you that you may not do what you like
| with your own property.

Sharp NetWalker PC-Z1 mini-laptop unboxed
,----[ Quote ]
| Whatâs a bit astonishing is that this tiny laptop running
| Ubuntu Linux isnât the smallest clamshell device out
| there. Jenn also takes the time to compare the NetWalker
| with the UMID mBook M1 which is even smaller and looks
| more like a smartphone with a larger-than-average keyboard
| tacked on. The NetWalker dwards the UMID, but itâs still
| miniscule compared with a typical netbook and my guess is
| that touch-typing is going to be out of the question.
