| schestowitz | Even if they get paid to do something detrimetal like building bomb parts | Oct 04 01:32 |

| sebsebseb | and Fedora belongs to Redhat really | Oct 04 04:55 |
| schestowitz | Yes | Oct 04 04:55 |
| schestowitz | BUT... | Oct 04 04:55 |
| schestowitz | Ubuntu has no OpenUbuntu | Oct 04 04:55 |
| sebsebseb | however the code is open source, so forks can be made :D | Oct 04 04:55 |
| schestowitz | In Novell thid division is a tad illusionary | Oct 04 04:56 |
| schestowitz | Red Hat also does some T.M. aggression | Oct 04 04:56 |
| schestowitz | Like chasing over logo misuse | Oct 04 04:56 |
| schestowitz | Ubuntu does T.M. chilling too | Oct 04 04:56 |
| schestowitz | Renaming derivatives with "buntu" in them | Oct 04 04:56 |
| sebsebseb | T.M. chilling? | Oct 04 04:56 |
| schestowitz | Like Canonical made up the word "Ubuntu" | Oct 04 04:56 |
| schestowitz | sebsebseb: like scaring people who say "ubuntu" | Oct 04 04:57 |
| schestowitz | Or use that Fedora design | Oct 04 04:57 |
| schestowitz | I don't think it's necessary | Oct 04 04:57 |
| schestowitz | Canonical wants to control the brand | Oct 04 04:57 |
| sebsebseb | Support community distros :) true community distros | Oct 04 04:57 |
| schestowitz | i.e. not be associated with eeebuntu if it sucks | Oct 04 04:57 |
| schestowitz | But it could just let it be | Oct 04 04:57 |

| schestowitz | Not good IMHO | Oct 04 04:58 |
| sebsebseb | if we want to be sure that a distro is still around and probably not messed up in a few years or so, probably best to support a true community distro with a non profit behind it, but Fedora is an exception to that really | Oct 04 04:58 |
| schestowitz | Assimilated to the companies they seek to replace | Oct 04 04:58 |
| schestowitz | Red Hat also says "IP" | Oct 04 04:59 |
| schestowitz | And that's bad | Oct 04 04:59 |
| schestowitz | Novell does too, but it's proprietary | Oct 04 04:59 |
| schestowitz | Not sure if Canonical does too | Oct 04 04:59 |

| Chips_B_Malroy | "In case HP?s acquisition of Palm and its critically acclaimed webOS software wasn?t enough of a hint, HP today went and spelled out the obvious: it will not be manufacturing any phones or tablets running the competing Android OS. (And no, the detachable tablet that comes with the Photosmart eStation doesn?t count, mostly because it was in development before the Palm acquisition.)" | Oct 04 23:28 |
| hazzy | Lol | Oct 04 23:29 |
| hazzy | What a big waste of money that Palm was | Oct 04 23:29 |
| Chips_B_Malroy | "Meanwhile, it looks like we could soon see a webOS-based tablet. HP?s Jon Rubenstein, who was CEO of Palm before HP bought it, confirmed that we?ll see a webOS tablet in early 2011. And although HP hasn?t made any announcements, it did register the name PalmPad, and HP EVP Todd Bradley dropped the moniker in an earnings call. For now, we know it?s coming and that an HP Android tablet, well, isn?t." | Oct 04 23:29 |
| Chips_B_Malroy | PalmOS is still going on HP, just Android is not | Oct 04 23:30 |

| Chips_B_Malroy | And from the link, it looks like HP is only doing one windows tablet | Oct 04 23:31 |
| Chips_B_Malroy | "The decision isn?t surprising, particularly as HP already announced it had no plans to make a phone running Windows Phone 7. However, the company still plans to sell that slate that Steve Ballmer was waving around back at a CES in January. Albeit, only business customers will see that still-unnamed slate." | Oct 04 23:32 |

The real question is what direction their enterprise subsidiary will go as far as UIX vs Windows is concerned. Can they manage to agree to putting SAP suites on non-MS systems?

| Chips_B_Malroy | Goldman Saks saw no demand for an Intel based Windows tablet either | Oct 04 23:48 |
| Ziomatrix | oiaohm: those who want it can easily opt for an HP TabletPC anyway which is a bit more costly but a lot more usable in actual practicality. | Oct 04 23:48 |
| oiaohm | schestowitz: I don't get what that person is on about. Koffice is a far more complete suite than OpenOffice. KOffice include a built in project manager and the like. Really I use OpenOffice and Koffice in combination all the time. | Oct 04 23:49 |
| Chips_B_Malroy | HP needed something to compete with the iPad, so they bought Palm. | Oct 04 23:49 |

| Chips_B_Malroy | Rim bought an OS as well | Oct 04 23:50 |
| oiaohm | Chips_B_Malroy: Really It would have been sad to see webos completely die. | Oct 04 23:50 |
| cubevector | there... it's back up... I'll leave it up for now | Oct 04 23:50 |
| oiaohm | Some of its ideas for small screens was good. | Oct 04 23:50 |
| -TRIdentica/#techrights-[agentsmith/@agentsmith] Esperamos agora, com o @tarsogenro eleito, o LINUX volte ao Banrisul, e, o PROCERGS ESCOLA seja escrito de forma a rodar no LINUX também | Oct 04 23:50 | |
| -TRIdentica/#techrights-[agentsmith/@agentsmith] Pois @tarsogenro o Procergs escola precisa do pacote M$ Office para rodar, e, pagar licenças pra ele, não tem estado pobre q aguente | Oct 04 23:50 | |
| Chips_B_Malroy | But if WP7 fails badly, either Android is adopted by other OEM's, or they end up making their own versions of Linux. | Oct 04 23:51 |
| Ziomatrix | oiaohm: was? you're stating as though you're at an eulogy. Mind you development of WebOS 2.0 is proceeding according to schedule with SDKs already released. ;-) | Oct 04 23:51 |
| Chips_B_Malroy | QNX I think it was called that Rim bought | Oct 04 23:51 |
| oiaohm | QNX is now in blackberry ie RIM. Chips_B_Malroy | Oct 04 23:52 |
| Ziomatrix | Chips_B_Malroy: yup, a premier real-time microkernel based OS. | Oct 04 23:52 |
| oiaohm | Yes they aquired them. | Oct 04 23:52 |

| Ziomatrix | Chips_B_Malroy: it was the one Gateway was negotiating with to rebrand their Amiga PCs with. | Oct 04 23:52 |

| oiaohm | Ziomatrix: just put it this way I don't hold out huge hope for WebOS. | Oct 04 23:52 |
| oiaohm | Maybe HP will shock me and do a good job of it. Ziomatrix | Oct 04 23:53 |
| Chips_B_Malroy | yes, all I am saying is their is not a lot of mature OS out there left for other OEM's to buy. And WP7 is probably a failure. At that point the OEM's will have to fully embrace Android or make their own Linux distros. | Oct 04 23:53 |
| Ziomatrix | oiaohm: I don't expect it to be a marketing leader either, but I don't choose the "winners" when I want to purchase something. Just whatever best fits my preferences . | Oct 04 23:53 |
| oiaohm | I remember HP UX for all the ways I could take control of the system without breaching privilage. Ziomatrix | Oct 04 23:53 |
| oiaohm | Chips_B_Malroy: you are missing 1. meego | Oct 04 23:54 |
| Chips_B_Malroy | yes | Oct 04 23:54 |
| Ziomatrix | oiaohm: sadly you could see UIX die a slow death at the hands of HP's new roadmap. Wasn't it already being scaled back bar the Linux Pheonix OS acquisition? | Oct 04 23:54 |
| Ziomatrix | my bad UX | Oct 04 23:55 |
| oiaohm | I was using HP UX in its golden days. Not its current end of life. Ziomatrix | Oct 04 23:55 |
| oiaohm | HP and OS development has never been brillent. | Oct 04 23:55 |
| oiaohm | Normally the stuff they buy from out side is good then slowly rots as there internal structs take hold. | Oct 04 23:56 |
| oiaohm | I am hoping webos goes against that trend. | Oct 04 23:56 |
| Ziomatrix | oiaohm: hence why the former CEO may have gone on a buying spree with Palm, Pheonix and that cloud storage company | Oct 04 23:56 |
| oiaohm | And if it follows the normally path. Pheonix and Palm will be dead. | Oct 04 23:57 |
| -TRIdentica/#techrights-[lxoliva/@lxoliva] RD @glynmoody: ACTA - are they faking it? - http://bit.ly/cozNbF "Whatever the outcome, ACTA is very much a counterfeit agreement." ha! | Oct 04 23:57 | |
| Chips_B_Malroy | Next year will be worse for Microsoft. It will be the year of the tablets. | Oct 04 23:57 |
| oiaohm | And the cloud storage company will be sucessful. | Oct 04 23:57 |

| cubevector | oiaohm, the end of SCL was the end of HP for me | Oct 04 23:57 |
| oiaohm | Yes HP is great at running server farms with 100 percent uptime. | Oct 04 23:58 |
| oiaohm | Normally using outside OS's like Linux | Oct 04 23:58 |
| Ziomatrix | oiaohm: HP managed to kind of integrate Voodoo and eventually whittle down its product portfolio due to demand from the Blackbird aperformance desktops to simply the Envy laptop line, which is doing away with the Radiance display and simply keeping Beats. | Oct 04 23:58 |
| oiaohm | HP really needs to learn to play to there strenghts. If they did they would be way more profitable. | Oct 04 23:58 |
| Ziomatrix | oiaohm: HP seemed to be never about selling complete packages but relatively affordable and reliable hardware along with minimal support. | Oct 04 23:59 |
| oiaohm | HP does 3 things great. Ziomatrix | Oct 04 23:59 |
| oiaohm | 1 High end printers. | Oct 04 23:59 |
| oiaohm | 2 datacenters. | Oct 04 23:59 |
