Little Linux Box Bits...

[Molly Tournquist]

Okay, but look at the context of the magizine, there's a review of a the nonpay version of linspire, which had you running as root all the time. There's a big review of pingus back when it was nothing but tutorial levels, there's expectations for linux to have a full smorgasboard of gaming and for linux users to be purchassing an amount of games "acceptable enough" for the industry. But there's a need to jump over that kind of head spinning groupthink firmly onto such a discrete oversight?
