Tinkerbell Linux |
| A new and exciting distribution was born this week. Unlike the hundreds listed on this web site, the new Tinkerbell Linux is developed by none other than Paris Hilton, a popular American sex idol. Explaining the motivation behind her entry into the open source software world, the 25-year old blond had this to say: "I think The Open Source Movement is, like, really hot. I've been dabbling with coding for ages, but it's taken me some time to find the courage to release it. As you know, I'm a shy and modest person, and wasn't sure if it was good enough for the strict standards of the coding community." As for the technical side of things, "Tinkerbell Linux is based on Slutware Linux and will be distributed on Paris Hilton's next music CD entitled 'Crontab for Love.'" Our take: Ubuntu's days at the top of our page hit ranking statistics will be over in record time as the new Tinkerbell Linux will take the world by storm. This is exactly what the Linux world needs to displace that other operating system from computer users' desktops! Great great news!

Windows Hasta La Vista - Ironclad Security |
| It has been three long years to the day since we last looked at that unusual distribution called Windows. Although at that time it was considered by many to be little else than a bizarre joke (who on earth would design an operating system that doesn't provide a way to grep files?), a recent rumour about a new release has piqued our curiosity. Developed by a large group of programmers who, believe it or not, all work in one building, the new version is predicted by some journalists to be one of the most secure operating systems ever created. Robert Storey, our ardent distribution reviewer, couldn't hold on any longer and downloaded the most recent beta version of Windows Hasta La Vista from a nearby mirror to take a look.
And this is what he found....

Operating Systems on a Collision Course |
| It all started one morning high in the skies above California's Silicon Valley.
Devil McBribe, CEO of SCOurge Corporation, was piloting his own personal corporate Learjet. He had taken off from Provo, Utah, at 7 am, and now - three hours later - was circling San Carlos, California, expecting to land.
The weather did not look good - a thick fog had settled over San Francisco Bay, and the runway at San Carlos Airport was not even visible. Nevertheless, McBribe was determined to land his jet because he had an important press conference to attend at 11 am. The conference would be held in nearby Redwood City at the office of Rob, Raep, Pillaj & Plunder, Attorneys-at-Law.

Distribution Review: Windows XP |
|
| Many of us have been forced to use Linux for various reasons - some of us found it pre-installed on the computers we bought, others don't have money to buy anything better. There are even those who have never heard of other operating systems. Believe me, they do exist. But many of those who have heard of them still resist the change. What are the reasons? Inertia? Reluctance to learn new things? Worry that we will never again be able to recompile our kernels? One of our regular contributors has finally seen the light and switched to Windows XP, an operating system developed by a company called Microsoft (we'll miss you Robert). Robert was more than happy to share his experiences with the rest of us, the unwashed masses.

BarbieOS |
| BarbieOS 1.0 is the result of almost a year's worth of marketing research into what pre-adolescent girls want in a mobile Linux solution aimed at being a desktop replacement. The studies included human interface interaction, real-world usability, and rich media analysis to determine where the needs of girls are not being served by current Linux or Microsoft solutions. Mattel discovered that many of the girls they interviewed had heard positive things about Linux and expressed some curiosity about it, but less than 1 percent had actually used a non-Microsoft operating system in the last 12 months. The researchers also concluded that restrictive EULAs, proprietary file formats, and digital rights management technologies were not popular with pre-adolescent females, and almost none were satisfied with the results of Microsoft's Trustworthy Computing Initiative during the last year.
