Linux Desktop to Appear On Every Asus Motherboard

Posted by timothy on 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."

    You can argue semantics with me all day but you get the point. There needs to be a unified method of installing shit on Linux and it needs to be simple.

    But you know that 83.7% of statistics are just made up on the spot.
