  1. purdy grafix on SETI@Home For Linux · · Score: 1

    There are several factors in play here which should lead to an X11 graphical display being produced eventually:

    a) More workunits are being processed by unix than other 'OSs' - why only provide the pretty graphics for a minority of users?

    b) A sizeable percentage of those unix users (esp. linux) are able to program and may offer their services to the project

    c) The unix people could collectively withhold their cycles until their demands are met :)

  2. faster, smaller, simpler..? on Ask Slashdot: Handheld Linux, Today? · · Score: 1

    faster, smaller, simpler..?
    Linux on a Libretto 100 is fast, small and very usable.

    When you can use emacs to code in X, or the console to play quake, whether sitting on a train, standing in a queue, or sitting in a cafe, why would you want anything simpler?

    Pick one of these up cheap and don't look back.
