Linux
in Multimedia
I was just wondering ... I think Linux should design a computer some what like the iPad from Apple. I know I would buy one, and I'm sure everyone that uses Linux would as well. While purchasing one the customer has the option to choose what operating system they would like.

Personally I use Linux all of the time, but even if Linux is announced to be on a mobile device I won't purchase the toys like cellphones, book readers, tablets, etc... because I find no use for them in my life. I prefer to be the developer/maintainer rather than a blind consumer. that runs to get hte latest and greatest.
I don't really have a use for a shiny new device, my laptop tethers off of my old Palm just fine, and my laptop doesn't require me to sit with my knees up so I can type on it.
But I'm sure that the legions of apple fanboys will soon be carrying around this oversized iphone, until they get tired of its bulky size and start leaving it in behind because, unlike the iphone, it doesn't fit in any pocket that I have seen. Hmmm, unless Apple comes out with an iSnuggie with a big pocket.

Seems every Linux distro has a thread, these links came from the fedora forums.
