Blue Point Linux Moved to Inactive Page |
| "After the quarter ended September 30, 2001, the Company plans to continue to develop the software of 'Bluepoint Linux' and Embedded system and also provide technical support to its customers. The Company will significantly increase its efforts in the development and marketing of embedded Linux operating system and embedded applications. Besides its Linux operating system and Linux solution business, the Company is making significant progress in its embedded Linux business." The above is from the company's quarterly report. BluePoint's last release however dates back to July 2000, a very long time in terms of Linux software. It seems that embedded systems are the main focus at present while the distribution has been given low priority.

At one point or another gamers can hit the wall when using other OS systems such as Linux and Mac, as Windows has always been renowned as the OS of choice for the gaming community. In a lot of cases this has changed somewhat over the last few years with the use of virtualization software that helps to bridge that gap, and it can be quite successful to a point. Of course, when you virtualize another OS you can lose some of the performance, than say running a game natively, and with slowdowns and bugs comes frustration. We have listed a few resources that we think are worth a mention for different types of gamers, both online multiplayer and single player, see what you think:
- World of Goo. This is a great puzzle game that will keep you busy for hours, there's also a free playable demo version.
- If you're a online poker enthusiast we can recommend you check out the pokerlistings.com Linux poker page, it has a list of poker apps that are compatible with your OS.
- For the MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) crowds you could always take a look at Vendetta online, "thousands of people can play together, at the same time, in a single, persistent universe", sounds great!
