Running Linux On Acer's C100 Tablet PC

Christopher Coulter writes submitted a link to this detailed guide to putting Debian GNU/Linux on an Acer Tablet PC. That most manufacturers aren't leaping to provide Linux support on their tablet PCs doesn't mean it isn't possible ;)

33Mhz DX

[Anonymous Coward]

I tried to install Mandrake Linux 9.0 on a 486DX 66MHZ computer with 8MB of RAM.

I failed miserably.

I would like Mandrake Linux to please fix this error of theirs immediately, or face the ultimate penalty under certain local laws and club regulations. We paid a certain ultimate price for our computer.

Java is Dying

[Anonymous Coward]

Elegy For Java

I am a Java user
and I try hard to be brave
That is a tall order
Java's foot is in the grave.

I tap at my toy keyboard
and whistle a happy tune
but keeping happy's so hard,
Java died so soon.

Each day I wake and softly sob
Nightfall finds me crying
Not only am I a zit faced slob
but Java is dying.
