The WFTL-LUG

It is December 19 and I have been looking back on
the year and I must say "that was some year, 2007
was". We saw the long awaited bankruptcy of SCOx.
But that was not a surprise, it was just a matter of time.

But there were surprises. Here is what I believe
are the surprises:

1. A large retailer would sell Linux computers
WOW!! It took almost a full year for the "WOW to start
now". The Green PC at Wal-mart sure turned a few heads.
To think that the masses would buy a computer running
Linux in a non techie environment like Wal-mart. Who knew??

In my opinion the computer hardware industry is being pushed around by the gamers and multimedia markets. I have a TV for watching video content and a radio for music. I do not NEED a multimedia computer at home, (but it is nice if I can) but it is certainly not necessary in the office environment.
