Yes, there was also a report in VW Driver a few quarters ago about a 15 year old kid that re-worked his Golf engine to run on used fast food grease. Pretty wild stuff. He would run the used grease through some sort of filter and then put it in his car. He got great milage too.
...wonder if you have to change the oil ever in a car like that?
I think the Gnome information ought to be public knowledge as well. Apparently from the article, the project was funded by the public. Thus, the public ought to have rights to use the data free of charge. What is all this licencing Bull-Potatoes about!? $5-$15 Mil for access to information, GIVE ME A BREAK! I realize it took 10+ years, but WE funded it, WE ought to get the fruit of the work.
This rules! I was just thinking that there's gotta be some one putting linux out on these. W-windows is pretty basic, but will do. I like the feature of playing MP3's on them. Way to go YOPI! Now...is there a way I can flash PocketLinux over to my Palm? That would be very cool. Then I wouldn't have to get rid of the palm I spent $240 on! OUCH. Like, is there a way to use the hot synch to erase all of PalmOS and install a Linux on it? hmmm... hackers, your answer please:) ?
