It is worth almost $5k USD to collectors. Can you imagine how much a PC preloaded with a virus would be worth in 10 years. I’d say 1/4 million USD, easy. Especially if it’s never taken out of the box, except to be scanned.

ATT got hit big time with this touchscreen scam. They roughly have ten of thousand of the new HP touchscreen notebooks. The users using them are sales people trying to show client ads before production. All the complaints came from the small screen with the little tiny buttons. Worse of all, they are running Oracle databases which are constantly updating to run on those sorry hard drives. Did I mention they run Vista? Israel Amdocs (spys) won the bid to implement that crap.

I’ve spent the last 10+ years trying to keep people from touching the goddamn screen, why are companies trying to undermine all of that work?

What happens as a result of out-sourcing. The right hand does not know what the left hand is doing but both want to market on time to grab attention from investors.

@chris

Does that Ubuntu setup have touchscreen? For max speed, download the full kernel source 2.6.25.5. Next copy the config file in the boot directory into the /usr/src directory pointing to the 2.6.25.5. Rename config file to .config. to a make xconfig and then tell the kernel your exact pc model…disable smp if you running single core. And most inmportant…there is some kind of timer setting that really should be set for 1,000hz. Rebuild kernel and modules. You have speed and power.

I think the virus myeclass.*.* could be the one inside that PC!

I thought I sorta did when the Eee first came out and there didn’t seem to be much alternative, but now I have a Fujitsu U810. Smaller, faster than the first Eees, better battery life, a touch screen that flips to turn it into a tablet PC…

Okay, this is a bit off topic, but more people who have fallen for the Eee hysteria should look into the Fujitsu.

I just got my eee 1000h, and with the small screen, this is much better:

http://www.ubuntu-eee.com

it’s meant for the small screen, but the desktop has the same hardware, so everything would work right away.

ps, it does not make it run faster, although it is nice when XP decides to randomly break itself…..again….
