First Moblin V2 Netbook Launches

Posted by timothy on from the still-want-to-rhyme-with-goblin dept.

nerdyH writes "The first netbook preinstalled with Moblin v2 for Netbooks will launch next week, possibly at Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in San Francisco, or else the Linux Foundation's LinuxCon in Portland. Then, within the next couple of weeks, the Moblin Project will release the first stable release of the Moblin v2 Linux distribution, which began beta testing in May."

    Moblin? What is it - a combination of "goblin" and a "mob"? No matter how I read it, the associations I get are just very negative. Can't sell a product with a name like that.

    Interesting logic. I guess it's also hard for you to sell a product that's named after something as fragile as a pane of glass then?
