Hey all, I am at Linuxworld at the San Francisco Moscone Center and I have to say, it is VERY crowded!  But I did just get here, but I have to say that there isn't much difference from last year.  I am going to walk around more and update with more highlights. 
I am really looking forward to the LinuxGaming booth.  I am really curious to see what they have going on!

Ok, I will update later.


MMmmmm.... geeek grrrrllssssss :)

Then we would have to offer tech support for an OS that we are totally
unfamiliar with. Our tesing applications would not work nor our imaging
applications. A very good idea though! :)

Actually Robert is very right.  I think I am the only person at DS who is capable of supporting Linux, but, honestly I don't want that kind of drama.  That is a WHOLE new can of worms ;)
Besides, the only thing that was at Linuxworld today in the GamingonLinux booth was mainly focusing on game servers.  Very disappointing since there is like, next to none games for linux.  :(  I went today for the sole purpose of checking out the new games for linux, but found that there are like 5 games or something like that that would work natively.  Everything else you would need VMWare or other MS emulators. 
Maybe next year.
