    Future improvements

    - I've used a simple software rescaling algorithm so the entire screen will fit into the tiny 480x272. This of course takes a lot of CPU time and slows everything down quite a bit. It is possible to rescale the screen using the built in 3D hardware acceleration and I will get on it soon.

    Windows 95 actually runs quite well but don't expect it to be a speed demon. It takes about 10 minutes to boot but afterwards it's pretty usable. I was able to do things like: open "My computer" and browse the virtual hard drive, complete a whole game of Minesweeper and run various other applications. Now you too can get your Minesweeper fix on the go :)

    So CNN finds out you may have done something bad and would upset other people, so they publish your name, phone number, address, work address, and information about your SO.

    Just because some of this can be looked up in a phonebook doesn't mean CNN should be reporting on that part of it.

    The author of the article talks as though evaluating software objectively were a problem unique to adopters of Open Source

    Not unique to open source but it affects open source projects more since they don't always have the marketing dollars to get word of a good product out there.

    You're assuming this is done at a driver level.

    It's likely done at a hardware level, or more specifically firmware.

    No problem with my $50 epson if I break it, but damned if I'm gonna try hacked firmware in a $10k network printer.

    No but that isn't what this is about.... google would be considered an "information-location tool" so if by chance it indexes a site which hosts copyrighted material (yes I know the possibility is shocking) they are liable.
