Internet Devices Get Their Own Ubuntu Version

Barence writes "A version of Ubuntu targeted specifically towards mobile internet devices (MIDs) has been released by Canonical, although there is presently only one product on the market which can use it. According to the company, the pithily titled Mobile Internet Device Edition 8.04 has been optimized for use with handheld internet platforms, and designed to run smoothly on Intel's Atom chips as well as with small touchscreen displays. This follows Canonical's announcement earlier this month that it would be creating a version of Ubuntu for netbook devices such as the Asus Eee PC and the Acer Aspire One called Netbook Remix."

ZOMG, they're working on their next version, this one must have sucked! "Leopard=fail, Apple is already working on 10.6" Since when is working on the next version of your OS a sign of failure, and not a sign of good business sense and continual development?

GP is the ultimate Apple fanboi.
Leopard is less than perfect, and the ultimate Apple fanboi expects nothing less than perfection from Apple. Therefore, Leopard == fail.
