Okay when you wake up and the Temp outside is -15 degrees and a windchill of -35 degrees you just know it is not going to be a good day. And the bad part is they claim that is about as good as it will get today. Darn and this is only January.

Linux laptop users suffering from Apple MacBook Air envy now have a chic, hot laptop to call their own: the Dell XPS 1330n with pre-installed Ubuntu 7.10.
It is a good thing that Linux is becoming more mainstream but darn are any of you listening, there are other distros out there and just maybe if you started to add one or two others to the mix you just might see a even bigger increase in the linux box sales, Baldy
