    Nope, the question should be how well does it work?
    Try again; you'll notice that "good" is listed in the OED as a legitimate adverb, derived from a similar usage of the Teutonic gut:
    good, a., adv., and n.

    B. adv. a. qualifying a vb. In a good manner; well; properly. {dag}b. qualifying an adj. or adv., with intensive force: In a high degree, 'right'. Obs. (Cf. A. 19b.)

    Nope, you didn't even read the article summary did you? It's to boot a computer, using the ipod as an hdd, not running linux on the ipod.

    Well I hope you are consistent. You better not have bought that G3 tower, and I hope you grow/hunt/beg for all your food. Would't want you compromising your freedom by actually buying something.
