Re: Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux Linux

But this should have better video.. larger screen then the current iPod. I bet it has more RAM and a faster processor as well. Also will be less expensive then Apple's iPod but most importantly it will be funny to have it run Linux while the case says Micro$oft.


But seriously, installing Linux will remove any silly restrictions, will give access to more codecs, will allow you to customise it with third party software and will satisfy urges to mess with Micro$oft.

It's a win-win situation unless you want to use the DRM stuff, then it's a no-no.

I'm sure some hacker or group of hackers would love to have it boot LINUX... I would buy one just for that!
What good would that do if you cant use it due to the DRM?
