Linspire Looking for More Lawsuits 04/20/2004 10:11 AM

Linspire's lawyers (formerly Lindows) apparently need work after their losing battle with Microsoft. Now they're testing Apple's resolve by announcing LPhoto and LSongs . Two applications that bear more than a little resemblence to iPhoto and iTunes. Apple may be smaller than Microsoft, but it doesn't take too much research to find that they take their intellectual property very seriously. Unlike their last battle with Microsoft, I have a feeling they'll get to keep the names, but the apps will no doubt look vastly different by the time they are released.

Lindows Becomes Linspire

Lindows Becomes Linspire 04/14/2004 11:51 AM
Following Microsoft's round-the-world attempts (and some success es) to ban the name Lindows - combined with the unsuccessful attempt at using the Lin---s< /a> name instead, it appears that Lindows has settl ed on Linspire as their new name. Of course, in the end, they'll probably privately thank Microsoft for giving them so much publicity to get their name out there. Yet another case where trying to shut something down probably gave it a lot more attention.

My Workstation OS: Linspire 4.5

My Workstation OS: Linspire 4.5 03/14/2005 04:05 PM
Built on a Debian Linux core, Linspire is designed for simplicity of use, and it delivers this in spades. Linspire eliminates the need for me to be technically proficient in the nuances of Linux to successfully operate and enjoy the OS. This includes loading software, staying updated, and never seeing a command-line interface. It makes it very easy to just get on with what I have to do and not worry about the technicalities of using a Linux-based system.

Linspire (formerly known as LindowsOS) has consistently made an attractive, easy-to-install and easy-to-use GNU/Linux distribution. With the 2.6.10 Linux kernel and a recent build of X.org, Linspire has fixed some of the video driver problems I had with the 4.0 and 4.5 versions. As in previous releases, Linspire includes many proprietary add-ons "mainstream" desktop users enjoy, but in return it comes with proprietary strings attached.

Dell Sells Samsung Q30 as Latitude X1

Dell Sells Samsung Q30 as Latitude X1 03/30/2005 02:03 PM

Dell surprised me today with the announcement of the Latitude X1 Ultraportable, better known around these parts as the Samsung Q30. Dell licensed the design from the Korean manufacturer and is selling it through their site starting at $1,700. It's a fine bit of laptop, with a 1.1GHz Pentium M, sealed anti-spill keyboard and all the fixins'. It's not quite as nice looking as the Samsung model with that dour Dell grey, but who cares? This is a great little laptop for a very reasonable price. It might even miss the Dell laptop curse, too, and stand more than 12 months of abuse.

What Dell Support Thinks of Dell

What Dell Support Thinks of Dell 03/30/2005 04:59 PM

In an InfoWorld Gripe Line Blog, anonymous Dell employees are asked to make their feelings known about working for Dell. As we all know, Dell moved their tech support to India and they have employees in other parts of the world now too. It sounds like the new users dumb questions and working with Windows constant crashing and errors have driven even the Indian support workers to the brink of giving up. Here are a few quotes from the above story..

Back about eighteen months ago, the comments started off pretty apologetic about the Dell support gripes readers were airing. A poster who said he or she had just resigned after six months with Dell support in Hyderabad said that Dell technicians would sometimes know right off that a problem required a replacement component, "but we are bound by company policy which prohibits us from dispatching components until we finish the script given us by Dell management," the poster wrote. "I basically felt really bad in situations wherein I had to make really old people open up their computers, and I did in fact meet people on the phone who would be in tears if we told them that they need to open their machines. 

"I too am working in Dell tech support," the poster said, saying his job had been to route calls to the proper support group. "The great thing is that tomorrow is my last day here. Great because this by far has been one of the least gratifying and frustrating positions I have ever held. Yes, there are extensive and considerable problems with Dell tech support. Their outsourcing to India is not even the least of them. Every day is a continuous assault by absolutely clueless and irate customers and an ineffective phone-based support system that is enough to make anyone crack. I'm saying that it all sucks: Dell's systems and their support and the morons who purchase them ... So many times I've had to restrain myself from telling customers who are whining about what a piece their Dell is that, hey, guess you should've bought a Mac. Goodbye, Dell!"

Samsung seemingly manages to release a new phone every three days. The SGH-D600 is the newest gem. At first look, the two megapixel camera with expandable memory definitely looks nice, but the expandable memory is in the unusual Transflash format. This phone does have a large 320x240 LCD display and most of the standard dosh that comes along with with a nice cellie including flash, Bluetooth, not to mention a flip out keypad.
