Linux on a Stick: Future of Mobile Computing

,----[ Quote ]
| The next wave of mobile computing will be USB-based open-source
| programmed computers.
| 
| [...]
| 
| The device comes preinstalled with a Linux operating system,
| OpenOffice Suite, Evolution Email, and Firefox Browser, among
| others. Compatible with PCs that use an x86 processor, the
| open source software is compatible with proprietary applications
| like Microsoft Word and PowerPoint.
| 
| Why open source? Keeps those pesky licensing fees down
| while allowing the computer to work virtually everywhere.
| The Computer-On-a-Stick is proving popular. Every version,
| from 256M to 2G is currently sold out.
