While the specs are useless for vista, it works blazingly fast on Ubuntu with the Enlightenment Window Manager. The machine is now officially sold out of their online warehouses, and the product sales page at WalMart.com is full of glowing reviews from new and old linux users alike."

Journal Journal: Earning from Open Source?

Journal by pestario on Tuesday August 31, 2004 @08:15AM

There has been a lot of talk about the benefits of open source. So I thought I'd put in my 2 cents.

Even though open source is a great way to produce high quality software, it does not do anything financially for the programmer(s) who spent days, if not weeks or months writing the software. There has to be some compensation for the time put in by the coders.
