Linux running on an Apple ][!!

Now, that's as strange as Mega Man on the 2600:

Winblow$ 7 CNET Review

http://reviews.cnet.com/windows/microsoft-windows-7-professional/4505-3672_7-33704140.html?&subj=re

And here's my review:

What was wrong with Windows 95's START button? Other that it loaded all of the files that are folders and shortcuts into the RAM.

Why is the Apple Dock-wannabe bar so large at the bottom?

Okay, so it works with every legacy Winblow$ product I've thrown at it, including some 3.x programs.

Doesn't crash easily, but crashes nonetheless. I can run Linux or Mac OS X for MONTHS before it crashes.

Has a good number of the same old conflicts, and is as stable as 2000/XP/95.

Thanks but no thanks. I'll stick to Mac OS X. Security is still nil on the damn OS.

Solid-State hard disk? Damn straight!

http://www.memory.com/item.asp?item=TS128GSSD25-M

This is the way to go. Buy it, then buy these cheap $3 adapters for full IDE support. No wonder Jobs has cutting PPC support. People are installing these into their PPC Macs to extend the life.

Google OS is getting ready to CRUSH Windows

http://news.cnet.com/8301-27080_3-10292435-245.html

A big plan is coming about. Soon, the two allies, Google and Apple, will battle each other. Then what? Solaris on Apple servers?

The Apple/Oracle/Google/Sun/Adobe/Disney alliance continues.

M$ profits lose 29%

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=a8yA3nOPwv_Q

Considering a business can be broken on 0.25% loss, 29% is going to cause a ripple effect that will reduce this company to has-been within five years. And I can smell Ubuntu becoming the replacement OS because that team refused to play ball with M$ over patents, is based in Africa, and will OSX their OS for the OEMs, if the OEMs survive.
