Everex's new MyMiniPC: $500 and gOS-powered
,----[ Quote ]
| Everex is popping off a new gOS powered box tonight, given the unfortunate
| monicker of MyMiniPC. While $500 is way more than enough to get you started
| on a low-end Windows box (and even most of the way there toward a Mac mini),
| the MyMiniPC comes equipped with a 1.86GHz Pentium T2130 and 512MB RAM
| running gOS "Space", a 120GB drive, DVD±RW, firewire, four USB 2.0 ports, DVI
| and S-Video out gigabit Ethernet, media reader, and standard audio ins/outs.

| I found the gPC and its gOS operating system easy to use.
|
| For example, just clicking anywhere on the open desktop brings up an
| equivalent to the Windows Start menu, and right-clicking gets you a menu of
| popular programs. I also like the Package Manager, a part of Ubuntu, which
| finds and easily installs dozens of free and open-source programs.

A short look at gOS

Gosh, gOS is good

| I really liked gOS. It's a cute little system with lots of functionality and
| great looks. It works well and is fast and stable on my laptop. It should
| work on any computer that any other Linux supports. Enlightenment is an
| impressive desktop environment, and the iBar is a low-overhead way to blend
| cool effects with needed functionality. I think users will like it.
