G1G1 2.0
Posted by Sayamindu 1 year, 4 months ago
- G1G1 is back (and we are shipping to Europe as well for this edition). This time, with Amazon around, the delivery issues would hopefully be a lot better.
- It looks like the XO is topping the Amazon bestsellers list in the computer category today.
- The laptops can also run GNOME with Fedora as an option (put in an SD card, and it will boot Fedora, pull the card out, and you’ll get Sugar). Someone is already selling Fedora pre-installed SD cards for the XO on Amazon. (of course, you can always create an image, and put it on a SD card yourself)
- Apparently there is still confusion about OLPC and Microsoft – Greg’s post should clear things up.
- Among the G1G1 related marketing efforts, there’s a pretty awesome video (I’m trying to find out if there is a Ogg version somewhere), and a cool (though flash based…) “equations to change the world” website, equation.laptop.org.
I was just going to order but P&P via amazon.co.uk is 50GBP – that’s a deal breaker!
You do have an eye. I liked your pictures. Photography is so much of a precious art that it’s sensitivity can be felt but a very sensitive heart.
I have been thinking for sometime whether I should be having a blog or not. But now I finally have a blog. The name of my blog is – My Third Eye. In recent times I have discovered a genuine fondness for photography. Capturing the world and its people in still images is a very difficult task. But right now I am trying. I am serious about this hobby. And I will carry on with it for years to come.
In my new blog I have posted a few pictures that I have taken in recent times. There are four categories. There is also another category which has my sketches. The URL is: http://clickmoments.blogspot.com/
I will be glad if you pay a visit to it and post your thoughts. I hope others will pour their thoughts in soon. You can even vote in the voting machine at the bottom of my blog. You may even be my follower if you want to. By clicking the ‘Follow this blog’ link on the top left of the page, you may add yourself to the list of my followers. I will be extremely glad.
