  1. Commercial availability? on OLPC Gets a New Name, New Features · · Score: 1

    I know they're saying that it's not available for the general consumer, but in line with this recent discussion I think it'd make a perfect PDA. It's smaller than most laptops, but has more functionality than most PDA's. Naturally if size is a true concern for you it may not work (probably can't slip this in a pocket), but I'd buy one in a heartbeat. I saw a guy/site the other day that's trying to get them to charge $300 for a consumer, the consumer gets one and two kids somewhere in the world get one for free. I'd even do that (although with the price creep on the laptop itself I'd be more inclined to pay for 2 instead of 3).

  2. Re:This won't last long... on New Speed Record For Hybrid Cars · · Score: 1

  5. Re:Win4Lin is dead, so what are the Linux options? on VirtualPC 2004 Versus VMWare 4.5? · · Score: 2, Informative

    VMWare is available with an educational discount, can't remember what I paid for it a while back, but it was considerably cheaper than the list...

  6. Re:Not to rain on your parade, on Microsoft Patents The Task List · · Score: 1

    Eclipse let you define custom tags as well...

  7. Re:Any crumbs for an OSX user? on Novell To Release Ximian Connector Under GPL · · Score: 1

    You mean like the Exchange connectivity that comes with Apple's Mail?

  8. What about Apple... on McNealy Answers: No Open Source Java · · Score: 1

    ...and their Java implementation? Seems as though they have a pretty tight relationship with Sun and are able to include their own version of Java in OS X without any problems.
