  1. Re:well that's a simple answer on What to Do With a $99 Wall Wart Linux Server · · Score: 0

    The wall outlet plug snaps off, and they ship with a corded adapter. You could fit all 8 on a strip that way.

  2. Re:Web UI on Apple Refusing Any BitTorrent Related Apps? · · Score: 0

  4. Re:DId the former USSR do this? China? Vietnam? on DHS Allowed To Take Laptops Indefinitely · · Score: 1

  6. Re:It flew under the radar on Best Buy Is Selling Ubuntu · · Score: 1

    Setting up linux is dead-simple for average non-dual boot use. It is easier than setting up an email program. For dual boot use, setting things up with wubi is, again, easier than setting up many moderately complex applications.

    The $20 also gets you 60 days of product support. This should be enough to get the kind of person who needs that level of hand-holding past install issues.
