Linux Desktop to Appear On Every Asus Motherboard

Posted by timothy on Wednesday May 14, 2008 @05:05AM from the positive-move dept.

An anonymous reader writes "We first heard about Splashtop back in October, when the instant-on Linux desktop was announced. At the time it was a really exciting concept but Asus only rolled out the technology on high-end motherboards. Splashtop just announced that Asus will be expanding the desktop to the P5Q motherboard family and later on to all Asus motherboards. That's embedded Linux shipping over a million motherboards a month! The release also mentioned that the technology will be appearing on notebooks this year as well."

No, it's not a non-issue. It is THE issue. Linux users are almost as smug as Apple users in this regard. Not helpful, just belittling. Until this process is uniform it will never be the YEAR OF THE LINUX DESKTOP.
