  • What can you expect?

    While I remain busy finishing up some work projects, I figured I’d drop a line and let you all know what to expect to see around here while I’m gone.

    Various stuff I noticed while catching up: Walmart now has the Microtel PC’s with Mandrake. Now, this may prove to be more of an in-road to the consumer market than the Lindows version was, since Lindows isn’t even a finished OS yet! It’ll be interesting to see if this catches some market share or if…
