Comment on EeePC 901 by Rainer Endres

I am really looking into this one. The battery life is really buying me in. And the test I read, especially pointed out the excellent quality of the external monitor connector.

Looking forward to getting one with a preinstalled linux. (do not want to pay the windows ;) )

[...] and all the other vaporware that surrounded it. At some point Jess Hall wrote a blog with the title ‘KDE4 - understanding the buzz’ in which she tried to describe what KDE4 was at that point and what it would probably [...]

Acer one did look ok-question is; would it perform/work as good as an Asus? The answer is-hardly.

Comment on Like No-one’s Watching by Andrew

I find that it takes a certain active will to achieve that state these days - not something I fall into, instead, something I have to actively seek.

In Zen or martial arts terms, it’s called “No-Mind”, or Mu (emptiness). I can achieve it there, from time to time as well.

I feel like I’ve touched it at work, from time to time, even in an highly interrupt driven environment - everything that comes in gets dealt with, it’s like my context switching time goes to 0.

It’s a buzz… but can be draining as well.

rofl! I was thinking exactly the same thing just the other day. I hadn’t looked at either of those sites for a while, but since you have so conveniently linked to them…

KDE 4.0.0. Tagged and the end of my distro hop? « Terminal Variant — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 17:49:41 +0000

[...] Ah, now then. Did I mention that I stopped hopping for distros? Well I’ve told myself this several times but till now I haven’t really kept it. Now that I’ve tried the distros I’ve wanted to try for now, I’ve decided that Kubuntu is ideal for me. “Kubuntu, you say? #17 on Distrowatch in the last six months? Isn’t that a little… erm, low?” No, as a matter of fact it isn’t. There are few decent Kubuntu reviews around which could tempt me to write one if time permits, but here is the one that got me thinking about Kubuntu. [...]

Sorry to hear about your camera. You mentioned you dropped it twice before. I just wanted to let you know that some LCD screens won’t appear damaged or cracked right away when you damage them. Later, you’ll notice the liquid crystals leaking out of it as you just did. :-(

By the way, I found your blog through a link to it on the Plasma development team page. I was bored and looking through the Plasma developer web sites/blogs. :-)

Comment on Asus EeePC by frames

I just wanted to drop a line to say that I believe this post perfectly explains why the Eee PC is such a success. I found it so revealing that I had to make a cite on blog I’m running.

It’s in Spanish, but just translates your two paragraphs from “I’m really sold …” to “… found nothing”.

Hope you don’t mind. Gracias!
