MeeGo, Zero To VT320 In Seventeen Seconds

Posted by kdawson on from the old-time-clickety-clack dept.

muirhead writes "Installing MeeGo on an Eee PC 1000 netbook is quick, slick, and easy. The user interface is colorful and stylish with many quirky animations. MeeGo's features are easy to discover and it is fast and responsive. Underneath it all though there is still just a netbook. That means it's got a display screen that has no significant weight behind it. That means typing on an undersized keyboard that has no life. All of these undesirable features can, however, be fixed by adding 9kg (~20lbs) of VT320 video terminal."

    I so want to focus unfocused anger up your collective editorial asses right now.

    I want to catch unfocused anger, collect it, concentrate it, then force it in a personal space.

    I want you to gasp, and yell "OMG, STOP!"

    Then I want to continue.

    I want you to yelp "That's redundant!" between clenched teeth.

    I know it'll do no good.

    Look Stallman. We've told you a hundred times, quit sleeping in the urinals. There's a perfectly good shelter down the street. Oh and do something about the body odor, unless you actually want to smell like someone who sleeps in a bathtub full of rotten egg yolks.
