Could these be the first screen shots of the upcoming Windows 7? These screen shots appeared on a Chinese forum. No one has yet been able to confirm if these are real, but you never know, Microsoft is very secretive about the upcoming replacement to Vista. They do look a lot like Vista, but this [...]

I have written a lot about the Asus EEEPC. We even covered that crazy dude who put every possible hardware mod into the thing. I’ve had various flavours of Linux running, Windows, and yes ever Leopard (with a little hackintosh love). When I decided to give Leopard a whirl on my tiny machine I followed [...]
