I think their point is that neither can any conclusions be drawn from Microsoft's spoofed Windows 7 interviews. People are willing to accept anything from an authoritative label. But that is not news, either.
Submission + - Intel's Poulsbo Driver A Bloody Mess? (phoronix.com)
AdamWill writes: "Phoronix writes about the mess that is the Linux support situation for Intel's new graphics chipset, the GMA 500 — aka Poulsbo. They refer to my own post on the topic near the end. Intel has a reputation as one of the most clued-up open source-friendly hardware companies, but if they can't sort out the mess surrounding the driver for this chipset — which is already used on the Dell Mini 12 and Sony Vaio P, and will be used on many future Intel-based systems — that reputation will take a serious hit."

Submission + - Amarok is being ported to Windows (kde.org)
NightFears writes: Amarok, the popular Linux multimedia player, is being prepared for a Windows port. As highly-demanded as it is, the port spawned a lot of controversy among the dedicated Linux users, since many of them feel that after the release there'll be one strong argument less for convincing people to switch to Linux.
Ah yes, and there's a screenshot.The amazing part here is that it only took two days. Basically most of Amarok was already so portable that it compiled without changes. I really expected it to be much more work. Shows that it pays off to use an excellent cross-platform toolkit like Qt in the first place.
