PC In An XP Box

wolrahnaes writes "There is an article up on mini-itx.com explaining how to fit a fully functional PC based on a VIA M10000 EPIA board in to a Windows XP box. The author even explains how he then fit it in to a Red Hat box and used a sensor to tell the bootloader which OS to run based on which box it is in."

    Don't worry about that. I'm a geek and I hump your mom daily, so there will be at least a few geeks of tomorrow.

    I'd say trying to get Lunix to run would quickly outweigh the cost of the single Windows license.

    Oh, but I forget that time is free for most hippies so I suppose that's OK. Nevermind.

    Someone has way too much time on their hands. If this guy is so smart, why doesn't someone put his brain to good use? Get him to fix the lingering IDE disk geometry problems in FreeBSD's installer or something.

    <sarcasm overtone="disgust" alt="troll"> Oh, wait, that would actually require motivating the guy to do something useful that he didn't necessarily want to do. Capitalism is evil, I almost forgot. </sarcasm>

    Isn't it just great when you simply decide to make up your own version of history? it's much more colorful, it's a great source of urban legends, and you don't even need to check your facts before posting since, by definition, you invent what you're talking about on the spot...
