Ultimate Mobile OS Showdown: iPhone vs Android vs webOs vs Blackberry vs Windows Mobile vs Symbian
Posted 07/17/2009 at 08:41:03am
What's interesting to me is that while both Android and Palm Pre are built on Linux, the former tries to "get away as far from Linux as possible" and re-implement their own things. The latter on the other hand is exactly the opposite - it uses so many common linux desktop technologies that it's surprising. Yet both are quite usable!

All I need is Ubuntu compatibility! But they're pretty good on that.

Intel has done its part well. Now to hope that marketers will realize what this thing is, and not mess up like they did with other linux-based os's.
New Gmail Feature is Hoping to Steal Users From Hotmail, Yahoo, and AOL

And good! As someone who regularly sends out emails, I'm tired of their crappy spam-detection and slow delivery. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't - but it always does on gmail so far.

It's actually a version of Linux.
Chances are, you won't be playing COD4 even on a win7 netbook either though.
Linux to Blame - Microsoft & TomTom Settle Patent Dispute
Posted 04/05/2009 at 05:18:35pm
Linux to blame for TomTom saving millions on MS licenses and their face when their GPS devices don't BSOD?
Really?
The 'infringements' means that when you install a Linux distro, it will read and write to your Windows partition. No, Windows can't read and write to Linux partitions officially. This is convenience. Otherwise, anyone who installs Linux will go "oh, well it sucks, it cant read my files on the windows side of the disk".
So chances are, you do want this kind of convenience. It didn't come at a price either - chances are that MS did not publish documentation on how to use its filesystem, and all of this effort was obtained through tedious reverse engineering.
Meanwhile, MS is on their merry way patenting practices that existed in Linux (and unix) for years. Which is why stuff like the Open Invention Network are great.
