Does it means it's working or that they just started to port it?
What's the biggest resolution on mobile devices?

:-)

I have Asus EEE901 at work for prototyping, and it is normal x86, 
so everything runs on it. I would not want to use smaller device, 
I need full keyboard :-)

long.

This kinda ties in with the no-installation blog.  No installation 
being "all installation, or Just Enough Installation" in this case.

I like the harmonica.  I mean that is the ultimate cool thing to 
do with your phone during a company meeting.  Can get everyone to 
whip them out and have a good ole country jamborie.

Somehow the content of the article is a bit complicated for my understanding, 
but do you think that the article could be talking about possibly 
upcoming Apple netbook? - photo included:

If you are wondering what is "tech" about this post, well, I guess 
it is pretty damned impressive to me the depth, the planning, and 
the execution of these kids (the boy specifically).  We should keep 
an eye on this kid, he will rule something one day.
And it is a relaly cute story...

Oh! No. REBOL is out of Top 100 again. http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html
and C is the language of the year.

So, the conclusion is that the rest of the world knows something 
we don't ?
