[CoLoCo] Linux Hitting the Mainstream

Looks like Microsoft's worst nightmare is coming true.  Linux is hitting 
the mainstream, the gPC is selling like hotcakes.  Wal-Mart is having 
trouble keeping them in stock in some stores from what I've heard from 
some people on other tech-related groups.  Cnet and several other 
Pro-Microsoft websites have all given gOS rather shining reviews 
recently.  I think 2008 is going to be the Year of Linux.  
Dissatisfaction with Windows Vista is hitting the mainstream news!  Word 
of mouth advertising is the best way to spread the word about a good 
product, and this case its working for the gPC.

If I could afford getting one of these systems from Wal-Mart I would do 
so in a heart beat.  I'm on a very limited income, most of which goes to 
rent.  Yes, gOS uses Enlightenment but its still a great Window Manager 
in its own right.  Best of all gOS was built from Ubuntu.

Anyway, has anyone in the group tried out this computer yet?
