,----[ Quote ]
| At this year's Google I/O developer
| conference, a new prototype tablet running
| Google's open source Android mobile operating
| system was on display. The Foxconn-
| manufactured tablet is based on NVIDIA's
| Tegra 2 platform and features an 8.9 inch
| WSVGA display (1024x600), a 1 GHz dual-core
| ARM Cortex A9-based processor and 1 GB of RAM
| â likely making the device more than capable
| of 1080p video playback.

| But even Google cannot claim to have the can-
| do consistency of Canonical. The Ubuntu
| developer has delivered a major new version
| of its flagship product like clockwork every
| six months. In the six years the company has
| been in business, it has made Ubuntu (and its
| many derivatives) the most popular version of
| Linux in techdomâand done more than any other
| Linux distributor to force the free operating

| Mr Shuttleworth is adamant that Ubuntu Lightâ
| with its rapid start-up and touch-screen
| capabilitiesâis not only for netbooks,
| tablets and other portable small fry. It will
| work just as well, he insists, on large
| desktop computers. That may be true. But the
| Unity interface seems to have been designed
| largely for the squat, ten-inch format of
| netbook screens today.
