I remember reading in some Linux magazine that there was going to be a console that used Linux.
It has OpenGL, can play games and DVDs, has an open architecture (so that people can write programs for it), and can do a couple of other things.
Can anyone refresh my memory?
There's an easy way to test this. Just try to telnet to one of the Microsoft machines. If it connects, then it should say what OS it is running. If it doesn't, then it's most likely to be Windows, because Microsoft still hasn't come up with a telnet server for Windows.
