Quick Bits: Linux and Android Get a Boost
,----[ Quote ]
| This spring, Wal-Mart Stores abandoned its effort to sell a $200 Linux PC.
| But Hewlett-Packard is still trying to make a dent in the market, this time
| with a $379 version of its mini-notebook. The point of H.P.’s effort isn’t to
| sell a machine with Linux in all its geeky glory. Linux is simply the base of
| a simplified operating system that H.P. built to support Web surfing and a
| few other applications. Still, if this catches on, it could increase the
| pressure on Microsoft.

Google's Android Army Gathers More Soldiers
,----[ Quote ]
| HTC had better look out. Motorola has also chosen Android to be its savior.
| But these are not the only companies looking at the open mobile platform from
| Google. OpenMoko, maker of the Linux-based FreeRunner, is also eying Android,
| as is ASUS (yes, the maker of PCs). Can Android take over the mobile world?
